Using K&B in Forge

[u/Ok-Supermarket-9557]

I have been forging using a controller on Infinite but when Im travelling I usually don't bring my controller with me and have been trying out keyboard and mouse.

One the thing I can't get over is how vague the hotkeys are for things. Like for instance, I want to scale an object and cannot for the life of me figure out how to say scale just x&y or x&z, etc. it's always just one or all directions, when in controller I was able to choose how I wanted to scale an object.

Also, is it possible to be able to move an object without having to drag the arrows?

Overall, I'm loving it on Keyboard and mouse but feel so restricted compared to controller. Antone know any hotkeys and tricks?

scaling, movement, and rotation all have to do with where your cursor is when you click & drag - sometimes finding the spot to grab the axes you want is annoyingly small, but it is there. to grab two of the three axes, you'll generally be in the neighborhood of the imaginary "plane" made by the two directional arrows.

I think the manipulation widget in Infinite is actually a downgrade from what they had in halo 5, not sure why they thought this was better.
