powerAxis1.0 




  

Description

    powerAxis was developed for Cinema4D 8. It also works with version 9, but 9's new internal axis tools provide some of the same capabilities.
  • Cinema4D release 8 always puts the modelling axes at the centre of the bounding box of your current selection, oriented the same way as the object, and there's nothing you can do about it. 
  • With this plugin you can place the axes where you want them to be, with the orientation you want, and then use those axes as the origin for scaling and rotating any selection you want.
  • E.g. select an edge from one object, then rotate or scale a vertex/edge/poly selection from another object around it
  • Much more control is provided, such as the ability to set position and orientation independently from different selections, easy alignment of modelling axes with normals, edges, etc, and the ability to position an object so that the point/edge/poly selection is where you want it (easily align objects with other objects)...
