    I can't rotate my image

    posted to: File Setup and Adding References

    I duplicated the reference image and set the empty properties to front. Every time I type R, 180, Y, the image does not rotate. I made sure the correct image was selected. What am I doing wrong?

      Hi @TOPAZASH ,

      Could you give us more information, please?

      What is happening, when you press the R Key?

      Make sure you are using the Blender Keymap, and your Tool Keys are set to Immediate:

      Typically it's R for rotate, then specify the axis, so Y and then 180. But it works both ways. Perhaps you have affect only locations on?

      And also make sure that your Mouse Pointer is in the 3D View.

      Hey Omar, the problem was I had locations toggled on in that Options dropdown menu. I turned it off and it worked fine. Martin, thank you for you help as well!
