Michael,

Would it be possible to allow users to select which method they prefer for rotating objects? I myself prefer the faster 3D widget method. Like in Cinema 4D and other modelling programs. I'm guessing that the method MoI currently uses is quite common in CAD? Although I do see some benefits to the current method. Like being able to select the centre point of rotation as opposed to always rotating around the centre of the object. But I find that most of the time the centre of an object works just fine.

MoI's procedure for rotating:

Select 'Front' (Can only rotate on the X and Y axis in 3D view)
Select 'Transform'
Select 'Rotate'
Select centre point
Select reference point

The quicker "rotation widget" method:

Select 'Rotate'
Select the rotation axis and release mouse button when at the desired angle


Does anybody else struggle with the current rotation method? Or am I on my own here? :)
