Hi,

Some time ago - select and move - function started to act in very strange way.

In right window I can move only horizontaly - in left window only verticaly - in top window in all direction in same time, in perspective window only horizontaly.

Could you tell me what should i do return this function act normaly - like it was before when I was able move only in four directions?

Thank you in advance.

P.S. I am using 3D MAX Studio

it’s so strange. if the selection is locked try to unlock it by pressing space bar, and try to move again

It sounds like an issue with axis constraints.  Can you see the transform gizmo (colored arrows)?  The axis constraint can be controlled by using these, or by right clicking on the tool bar above and putting a check next to Axis Constraints.  If you can’t see the transform gizmo, try pressing the X key.  It’s the shortcut to toggle it on and off.
