Gumball not aligning with CPlane

Any idea why GM won’t align with this saved [custom] CPlane…?

[ CPlane was made with the CPlane to Object option, using the gemstone as the object.]

Hi Akash - if the gumball is set to align by CPlane and the selection was made in that viewport, then I would GumballReset and see if that sorts it out.

Yes, thanks Pascal.
I cycled between the modes expecting that to reset it to the correct CPlane [when it didn’t automatically] as in refresh…

Shouldn’t a CPlane mode, listen to the active CPlane and update accordingly?
[I keep forgetting about the reset option, ]

thanks a lot

It does this in Windows too. Seems to be a small glitch but there’s a couple work-arounds. One as mentioned is resetting the gumball. That won’t always work. Worst case I actually set the CPlane (using the 3 point option) to wherever/whatever I need the Gumball to align to. Not perfect but only takes a second.

Hi Akash -
It does not in that when you get back to the mode you want it remembers how the gumball was - per mode in V8, I see. In V7 it only remembered one.

Yes but the problem is AutoReset GumBall should always reset it to either CPlane or World…
Depending on the preference of the user.
But somehow the AutoReset doesn’t do its job ! on Blocks especially…
It’s frustrating to always have to manually reset it.
