      Hi,

      Is there any way to have a manipulator tool similar to blenders?

      I cannot find any way to show a manipulator tool or see and adjust positions with values in the free version. Is there any addons for this maybe?

          The built in Rotate tool can have the rotation protractor locked axially using the Shift key.
          The built in Scale tool with -1 will 'axially-flip' a selected object [+Ctrl for centrally scaling].
          My Mirror tool will mirror/flip object about any axis/plane you pick.
          My FreeRotate tool rotates a selected object about a picked point [or its center], with the selected 'axis' always turning towards the cursor; you can constrain it to rotate axially about the pixed axis using modifier key-combos...
          There are tools to align and so on - look at the Plugins Index... 🤓

            ThomThom was working on that as part of another tool.
            There was another plugin that did mimic this that was showcased here, but seems to be disabled now. I think it was called Combineditor, or something like that?

            EDIT oops outdone by the formidable Mr. O'Brien

                But is it operational?
