Transforming Geometry

With the transform tools in Modo you can quickly, easily, and most importantly, accurately apply transformations to items — whether hauling or applying values numerically. All the transform tools are universal in how they work. They respect the settings for falloffs, action centers, and the work plane. You can apply them in any mode: component modes (Vertices, Edges, and Polygons), Items, Center, Pivot, and even Materials modes. For information on using a specific tool, click any link below to see its topic.

Transform
	Transform	Combines Move, Rotate, and Scale transformations into a single tool.
	Move	Moves or translates a selection across a specific distance.
	Rotate	Rotates a selection by a specific number of degrees.
	Axis Rotate	A Rotate tool that it is limited to editing a single axis at a time.
	Scale	Makes a selection larger or smaller.
	Uniform Scale	Constrains all three axes, forcing uniform scaling operation.
	Tack	Moves and rotates a polygon and/or all connected vertices to any other polygon in the model.
	Center Commands	Commands that center a geometry selection at the World Origin position.
