Rotation center unused by Transform dialog

[pygmee]

When using the the Size tab of Transform window, it doesn't use the axis defined for the object. This is very usefull when one need to draw box by hand (not with 3D box tool) for example when we have to draw some product packaging. We can apply standard transform value for objects and then get a box very easily. But unless the window takes care of the axis, the result is not precise.

Excuse me, by axis you mean the center of the object (the small cross)?

yes i'm referring to the center, which is the default. I guess there could be some default options like corner or as you said center of object. But if the "center" has been changed the window should be ale to use this customized axis.

Thanks for your response. I'm setting this as a feature request. I mentioned this on one of my blueprints (linked at the right).
