Option 1: Use the Advanced Animation tools
Use this technique if you would only like to reset one type of transformation (position, rotation, sizing, skewing), or all transformations.
- In the Advanced Animation toolbar, select the tool that corresponds with the aspect you want to reset:
- Translate
tool (reset position)
- Rotate
tool (reset rotation)
- Scale
tool (reset size)
- Skew
tool (reset skewing)
- Translate
- In the Timeline, Node or Camera view, select the pegs or drawing layers that need to be reset.
- Use the hotkey R to reset the transformation based on the chosen Advanced Animation tool.
- Use the hotkeys Shift + R to reset all transformations.
Option 2: Use the Transform tool
Use this technique if you would like to reset all types of transformations.
- In the Tools toolbar, select the Transform
tool.
- In the Timeline, Node or Camera view, select the pegs or drawing layers that need to be reset.
- Use the hotkeys R or Shift + R to reset all transformations.
Option 3: Use the Coordinate toolbar
Use this technique if you would like to reset any type of transformation using values.
- Open the Coordinate toolbar by doing one of the following:
- In any toolbar space, right-click and select Coordinate.
- In the top-menu, select Windows > Toolbar > Coordinate.
- In the Timeline, Node or Camera view, select the pegs or drawing layers that need to be reset.
- In the Coordinate toolbar, all of the position values will be seen in the relevant fields. All positions except skew will have a field for the X, Y and Z value (in that order). Some fields may be greyed out depending on whether 3D is enabled or not.
- In the Coordinates toolbar, manually type the following numbers to reset the following positions. Press Enter to commit each change:
- Translate
fields: 0
- Rotation
fields: 0
- Skew
field: 0
- Scaling
fields: 1
- Translate
| NOTE: The starting default for all transformations in Harmony are 0 or 1. Keep these values in mind when resetting transformations. |
Q&A
Question:
I have a drawing selected but I can’t seem to reset its position?
Answer:
Does the drawing have a peg? Try selecting and resetting that instead. If the drawing isn’t using an embedded pivot, there won’t be any information to reset on the drawing.
