.
Note
Do not confuse the

Translating Objects
Now, you will see how to translate objects along an axis. Select the cube object in the
world-space by clicking the label “Cube” in the
Outliner
window. From the “Object-
Tools” panel, click the “Translate” button under the label “Transform.”
Once you've done this, press the
X
key. The cube in the world-space can now trans-
late along a particular axis (
Figure 4-10
)
, which is the global x-axis in the world-
space (of
3D View
).
