Hello all nerds =)

I got a question and I hope I can explain it for you...

When I have for example a cube and I want to rotate it, the rotation is not a problem, but the problems is that I got this balls in the edges, in Y, X and Z. and I want to have this circle around so I can drag at them insteed of the balls...

if you dont understand I will take a screen shot from school, so I can easier showe you... but that I have to wait untill monday

Don't do anything stupid =)

Just click and drag on our outside of the circle to rotate around the outer circle (in camera space), click and drag inside the circle but not on a rotation band to "free rotate" in all axis (like a ball).

or, reading again, do you mean you curently have the "stick" handles? in that case it depends what version you're using, if it's 8.5 or lower then i believe you didn't have the option of rotation bands without mesh surgery (plugin), in 9 and up you just go to your viewport configuration preferences and check the checkbox that says "Rotation Bands".
