Sorry to be an idiot but I am still not clear on the implications of this local/global terminology. Let me give you a simple example. I have an object which is linked in the keyframer. The Child/Parent link is locked except for a single rotation plane and I have placed a pivot for the child object. If I grab the object with the mouse I can manipulate it with Object/Rotate and the object has a new orientation in the Keyframer. Have I changed the global coordinates or the local coordinates. I want an IPAS which will achieve this by calling up a dialog such as "In frame ?? rotate object ?? degrees. Is this possible. Martin
