Modify > Freeze Transformations

Adjusts the current transformations on the selected object(s) to be at the object(s)’ zero position.

Freeze

Use the options to control which types of transformations (Translate, Rotate, Scale, or Joint orient) are frozen.

Note Freeze Transformations does not affect the translation transforms of joints because their translation transforms are required to define the lengths of their bones.

Lock normals

Select from the following options:

Never

When performing a freeze transform, the normals on your polygonal object are not locked.

Always

When performing a freeze transform, the normals on your polygonal object are locked. If Lock normals is set to Always, normals are baked and will not update if you make subsequent tweaks to the object's shape.

Non-rigid Transformations Only

When performing a freeze transform, the normals on your polygonal objects are locked if it’s a non-rigid transformation matrix (that is, a transformation that does not contain shear, skew or non-proportional scaling).

Preserve normals

When enabled, this option ensures that all transforms are oriented in the proper direction and not flipped, even on negatively scaled objects. This option is enabled by default.

NoteThis option only works with polygonal objects.
