⊹Objects & transforms

Location, rotation, scale, origin, parenting, collections — the basics of placing, grouping and organizing things in a scene. — 11 entries

Three values decide where an object sits, how it turns, and how large it appears. In Object Mode, the origin and mesh move together.

The point that locates an object and anchors its rotation and scale. It can sit somewhere other than the mesh center.

The point used to rotate or scale a selection. Unlike an object origin, it can change per operation: median, cursor, or each origin.

Snapping constrains moves, rotations, or scaling to a grid or nearby geometry, so precise placement depends less on mouse feel.

A folder-like group for organizing objects and controlling their visibility together. An object can belong to more than one collection.

A hierarchy that passes a parent’s translation, rotation, and scale to its children. A child still has its own transforms.

Bakes location, rotation, or scale into object data and resets those transform values. The object keeps the same visible shape.

Creates another object that shares the source mesh data. Its transforms remain independent, while mesh edits affect both objects.

Join combines same-type objects into one object; Separate moves mesh parts into new objects. Join does not weld the geometry together.

An object with transforms but no mesh data. Use it as a non-rendering control for parenting, constraints, or viewport references.

Chooses the mathematical representation used to store and calculate an object's rotation. One pose can have different Euler or quaternion values.
