  • 1.  Object axis not rotating with object

    Posted 03-11-2019 22:13
    Ok so, this isn't right. It seems that when I rotate say... a quad, the object's axis (pivot point) remains orientated the same instead of following the object's rotation. It is as if world coordinates are being applied instead of object coordinates. This is troublesome for animation... what could be going on?

    XPression 7.0 (build 3782)

    I can get the kind of movement I need if I adjust the X value of the pivot attribute, but that is not keyable.... wth? I don't ever recall having an issue like this before...

    I know there is a build out there in which they added the ability to keyframe pivot points. Not sure what version it was made for, but I know it exists.

    Yeah, I feel like they did that too, I am unfortunately stuck in this version as it is what the client has. I devised a work around though, involving a rotated group object parenting the elements who's rotations are then zeroed out so I can get the movement I need.

    It's always a bit of struggle at first when coming back to XPression after nearly a year away from it.
