Invisible Gizmo

Post » Mon Jun 18, 2012 2:37 pm

I feel a bit dumb for having to sign up to ask this but...

Anyone had the scale/rotate/move gizmo go invisible on them and never come back? w/e/2 key toggling would get me back to normal left/right click stuff but I want the gizmo. It simply does not show the gizmo or allow minipulation when toggled on. Cursor hides on mouse down but that's all. All preferences are normal.

I'd just got done placing Portals to my Rooms and it never came back. Please don't say its in a uber noober 1st read tutorial of the toolbar...

[solved]
Ended up reinstalling the CK and deleting the SkyrimEditorPrefs.ini -- Though I had AirMouse running and somehow that stopped it from deleting CreationKit.exe. Which took me a while to figure out.

Side note bug: My c, v and h keys stopped working but still worked in combination with shift or ctrl. Reinstalled fix that.

I'm not seeing the option anywhere. I've looked eveywhere. Even retraced my steps into portal mode to see if it was bugged into that mode. Nothin.

Really confusing.

Ok, I could really use a tip on this. I still can't figure out where or what happened to my scale, move & rotate Gizmo. I need to adjust my Rooms and Portals but I can't do that without a Scale Gizmo. I can edit the primitive's bounds but that scales from the center and kills the other connections.

My best bet is that, since two gizmos can't be active, the last time I left Portal mode with something selected and the scale gizmo active that the CK thinks I already have one.

Can I get a reset all preferences option or something that might reset this?

Just incase it's a thought. I have a valid number in all my prefernces -- they aren't 0

I don't know if this is related but I can't type certain characters when I added some quest dialogs.

Characters are: h, c and v

I can still hit combintations with those character (ex. ctrl+c and shift+c) but not the characters by themselves. Any possibility that the CK think's I'm holding down ctrl or alt? I don't recall if ctrl or alt did anything funny when a gizmo is in use ~ like go invisible

reinstalling the CK allows me to fix the character issues but still no Gizmo
