Houdini : Scale each primitives around their local center ?

[Olivier Jeannel]

Hi there,

I found myself trying to model something in H16 and I stumble on how to scale each selected primitives around their own center ?

A bit like the when you scale with the Primitive SOP with $CEX, $CEY, $CEZ.

I'm looking for the same behavior, but while modeling (I don't want to drop a node and enter expression each time).

I guess there might be a button somewhere, but couldn't find it...

Thank you :)

As long as you're in component space with your scale tool, it should automatically scale from the prim centroid (or an average centroid position if more than one poly is selected). I'm sure you know this already but a right click on the manipulation gizmo allows you to select the transformation space.

It takes the average position of all the component selected, so I have one average center for everybody.

Can I have 1 per component ?

There's an option to use local space on the scale tool which night give you what you want.
