View Full Version : move up after rotating an object

When I rotate an object, the y coordinate of the object will rotate too so next time I move y coordinate, it is not the same as the original y coordinate.

I tried to change world and object coodinate system but it seems not too much different there.

How to solve it?

Welcome to the frustrating world of rotation order. Best bet is to nest your object in nulls and use one null for each rotation axis.

Oh, C4D doesnt have a better way to do it? That doesnt sound great for the user. :P

The problem isn't C4D-specific. It's an inherent limitation of Euler angles, which are used in all 3D apps using an HPB rotation system.
