Cylinder dragging
ZoranVedek:
....Okay, been using this program since 1999, and hands down my favorite box modeling tool, but, and I have never been able to figure this out, how do I drag a cylinder out and have be completely vertical?
Is there a simple way to do this. As it is, every time you drag a cylinder it's invariably not 100% up and down, or left and right. It is in fact, no matter what, at an angle of some sort. How do I get around this?
AlecJames:
On early versions of Anim8or 095 ish I did it by eye.
Then, I see it in 1088 but don't have a 98 to check, you could double click the cylinder and set the orientation so that it is completely vertical / horizontal.
In the latest I have, beta 1.00b, the cylinder only drags out completely vertical / horizontal, so there's no issue.
It just keeps getting better and better :)
Which version do you have?

Wow, you're an early adopter!
Starting with the 1.0 release cylinders are always added vertical (in the World Z direction). Is that what you need?

I'll go download that now then, and have a look see. I'm not too picky what direction it's in, I can always rotate it, as long as it's accurately aligned to something(x,y,z).
I think I'm using 0.98 right now, but could be wrong, I have several versions floating around here.

Super-cool awesomeness!!!!!!
...one thing though, and it may or may not be a bug, but when I opened my project, all of my models were textured with the reference image, they all had a default texture to begin with. Not a problem to fix it, just thought I'd mention it while I'm here.
