With the release of iClone 2.5 you now have "Direct Picking and Manipulating Selected Objects". By using the following hot keys you can directly move and rotate characters, props and accessories from within the 3D Viewing window.
Double click an object in the window. Selected object will show a high-lighted bounding box when selected and the corresponding modify menus will be displayed automatically.
Hot-key quick editing- Alt+up/down = move (Z) - Alt+right/left = move (X) - Ctrl+up/down = move (Y) - Ctrl+left/right = rotate (Y) - Holding Shift during any key command will increase object movement speed 10x.
