Stop XSI from translating objects when duplicating [Solved]

Post by DarthD.U.C.K. »

I had this problem several times before but i didn't care much
now i'm creating collision primitives and its extremely disturbing to create for every primitve a new one, set the subdivs and name it corretcly
im doing tha because i made the experience that it can screw collisionprimitives up when you snap or autotranslate them

does anybody know how to fix that?
(its not the autotranslating that stops when you delete the duplicate and duplicate the object again)

Duplicate without offset

Post by AceMastermind »

Press ctrl+alt+d to duplicate without offset
or
File>Preferences>Commands>Duplicate Options
On the Options tab under Resulting State change the Placement to Same Global Xform.
Then if you select a previously translated object and press ctrl+d to duplicate it the new object will maintain the same position as the original.
