Orientation

The Orientation action sets the orientation of scene handles when you select objects and elements. Click the Orientation button to switch between the three states: Global, Local, or Normal.

Depending whether you are in text mode or icon mode, the button displays the following to indicate what state the action is in:

Icon mode:	Text mode:	Description:
	Orientation: Global	Similar to a compass, the handle orientation is always the same, regardless of local rotation.
	Orientation: Local	Similar to left vs right, handle orientation is relative to the object's rotation.
	Orientation: Normal	Special mode that aligns the handles to the exact normal direction of the selected face.

This action is available in all edit modes.

Tip: You can also use this action with the P shortcut, or from the ProBuilder menu (Tools > ProBuilder > Interaction > Toggle Handle Orientation).
