   submit for formal review.

If you have any changes to make, regardless if they are simple, respectfully could you contact Quartz or update Quartz's "mytalk" page with the related issues. If it is a major issue I will graciously sync my work and relinguish control to you.

Shouldn't the Selection part point to Manual/PartII/Selection? Something like: For information about advanced selection possibilities, see Manual/PartII/Selection. -- kenden 12:10 pm 14th april 2006

Actually, why have the 'advanced selection' in a separate chapter, and not Advanced Translation, or Advanced Rotation? -- kenden 12:45 pm 14th april 2006

[edit] Transformation

Just as a todo, the stuff on Blender's transformation system should really be split apart into a separate section, with (if really necessary) just an overview+links here. Transformation, axis locking, etc, etc, is not something that's only relevant to object mode, and there are a lot of things to cover (hotkeys, gestures, manipulators, axis locking, pivot points, special transformations like shear and to sphere) which deserve a separate page to cover it all properly and in a structured manner.

The constraints stuff should also be crosslinked with a separate constraints section too, not included here.

Also as another todo, this section should cover more the data operations that are available in object mode (found in the Object menu) like the various data relation commands like make links. --Broken 04:34, 21 June 2006 (CEST)

[edit] Empties?

There does not seem to be any documentation in the manual on empties. M.e 13:16, 5 August 2007 (CEST)

[edit] Deletion does?

Hey, I'm trying to hunt down wether deleting an object removes it completely or if it removes it from the current scene only, if the object was hard-linked to the scene without any copying. This seems to be the place that this should be mentioned. Can't test right now. Star Weaver 22:26, 19 March 2008 (CET)
