In a vue scene i import an object and i want to place it to a specific location in my scene.The thing is that if i try to drag it,it s quite hard and sometimes i loose it .So is there any other way to do it?

Thanks

Use the numerics tab, if you know the exact y,y,and z cooordinates to place the object

... you could place a primitive (Vue's own) at the spot where your object has to be.

Then import the obj,

save it off as vob**,

delete the obj,

select the primitive (place holder), and "replace by" this with "load obect" (right select the placeholder to get to these options).

**Now, the conversion to vob might look time consuming, but in the end you probably "should" do this conversion anyway - normally the converted files (vob format) are somewhat smaller in size (MB), load faster and whatnot.

The method of >bruno< will work just as well, sometimes it is a bit tedious to get the right coordinates, though.

OK, another method would be:

put a camera at the spot where you want your object to be (using the different views in Vue - not a problem, you can actuall SEE where you "go"),

import your obj, 

lift it up along Z,

go into the top view and place the obj right above (and in front) of the new camera that you had created,

drop the obj to the floor (left hand menu, last icon), and adjust there (rotation, etc.) as needed.

Using more camera's then the default one will solve more then one issue, from placement to scene views.

Hope some of this helps ...
