This tutorial belongs to very basic concept of object transformation for the beginners of Maya. These are used in every kind of modeling and it is thought first step toward becoming Maya expert. The transformation application is learnt at first to everyone wherever you are learning. You know that object manipulation and camera manipulation are the first lesson for the beginners. It sometimes takes enough time to hold control on both of these functions. So don’t worry for time consumption because these functions will help you to become expert in Maya. When you open Maya, there is user interface in front of you offering you to work with Maya tools and commands freely. There are helpful tools along with both sides of work space. The timeline and key frames towards bottom side deals with animation. The transformation purpose is to change the shape of default icon taking from shelf. The transformation tools are placed on the left side of grid. These tools are consisting on move, rotate and scale tools. The move tool is used to move the object anywhere in the workspace area. There is arrow sign describing three co-ordinates direction of relevant viewport. The rotate tool is used to circulate the object towards their axes. It also move the object but in round shape. The scale tools are very important tool among all because it converts the object completely after applying scale option. It makes the object larger and smaller and it depends upon model nature. We can transform the object position by putting values for their axes as you can see in following video.
