Rotate tool confusion


Recommended Posts

Just installed VW 12 on my new home computer - an Imac with OSX Tiger.

I cant get the rotate tool to work on this computer. The problem is, that the tool ignores keyboard input in the toolbar angle field. But on my job computer - a dual 1,8GHz G5 with OSX 10.3.9 the same tool seems to work just fine - but here I do not get the same options in the toolbar as on my home computer. (rotate duplicate/rotate in screen plane/plus a tool, I can't remember)

Am I really dealing with two different tools, that look similar? Or does the same tool work different on these two systems? Is there a fix for the dysfunction on my home Mac, which is quite disastrous?

You are right - and it is a bug: The rotate tool doesn't work for 3D objects, on either of my macs. It ignores keyboard input into the angle field of the toolbar. The workaround is to draw a 2D object, select it along with any 3D object you need to rotate and then select the rotate tool. I asume it will be corrected in the next update.
