I'll click on the name of a certain piece (for instance, Floor Parent 1) and when I try to move it, the frigging thing re-selects some random part that happens to be near the "translate/pull" button... The hassle goes on and on. I can't move anything on a specific axis... I know it's not what you asked, but both of these problems can be solved by using the parameter dials rather than the mouse pointer to click and drag. OR if you want to drag a specific part that you have selected, hold down the shift key while moving it with the mouse; this ensures that the part stays selected. To move something on a specific axis, use the parameter dials for Trans X, Trans Y and Trans Z. (You will also find Rotate X, Y and Z in there.) Using the parameter dials makes posing and creating scenes very much easier, especially when you're in a big scene and your display becomes sluggish. Hope that helps alleviate some of your more frustrating problems. Karen :-)
