Transform Tool: Move, Resize, Copy, and Rotate

[young monolith]

Ever placed a group of logic gates, and realized they are a little to the side? You could cut and paste them, but then you lose anthing wired to them! Introducing the new TRANSFORM tool! Replacing the Resize and Select tools, this new tool allows you to not only resize and copy, but move and rotate too! In Select mode, you can select multiple bricks with three modes: Box Mode, Connection Mode and the new Freeform mode, where you can select multiple bricks without creating a selection box, just the ones you want! Once you select bricks, hit R to change to Transform Mode, where you can resize, move, and rotate! A rotation gizmo appears at the center of the selection; dragging this rotates the selection in 90° intervals. There are also cone-shaped handles at each side of the selection; dragging these moves the selection, and the familiar cuboid handles also appear, letting you resize blocks.

In short, a new Transform tool, replacing the Select and Resize tools, letting you move and rotate without endlessly copy-pasting and rewiring.

I'll add any suggestions to this post!

Based on what I'd last heard from the devs, Move is a feature being added to the resizer for the next update. Initially it'll only be for singular bricks due to time constraints, but multi-selection/moving with it will be in the future.

We really need this

[gentle nimbus]

this is huge news. so huge

[white creek]

the latter feels more like a selection tool feature

[gentle nimbus]

it can fit for both because of the themes of both tools imo

[proven oar]

honestly if the selection stayed when switching to the resizer, that way you can select then transform

I would find it useful if you could see the array of individual studs/bricks and click on one to stretch it towards it

Cause i have difficulty trying to slowly resize the brick so it clicks on the right size

CLICK

[young monolith]

like a "resize to face" function? you can ctrl-LMB on a resize handle to do that (technically it is extend to max size but it works)

[lusty stream]

I want in-between increments

Per se, show the grids

Its in the code but it doesn't highlight

The J function alters it

But still uses most of the same grid snapping

Ohhh yeah this would be nice.

do you build with your cursor cnetered or unlocked?
