    Reference for Sectioning Gizmos Behavior with the Section Box

    The following table illustrates how the sectioning gizmos work with the section box.

    GizmoBehavior
    MoveYou can use arms and faces to move both the box and the gizmo itself in the relevant axis.
    RotateThe position of the gizmo signifies the center of rotation. Arcs rotate the box. Arms move the gizmo only.
    ScaleYou cannot move the transform center. Pulling on any of the scale points scales the box.
