Manipulator Gizmo, increase and decrease size

Support Basics & Interface

Hello,
I’m wondering if it’s possible to increase or decrease the size of the manipulator in Blender? Would be helpful especially for the rotate and scale tool when you need precision.

best regards
stefan

You can change the size of the gizmo, go to the Edit menu at the top, to the Preferences. Go to the Viewport tab. There you have Gizmo Size. The default is 75 px, but you can change it. Further, if you need precision while scaling, moving and rotating, use the Shift key while dragging. It will enter a slow-precise mode.

Thanks a lot! Didn’t know about the shift key option.

Actually it would be nice to be able to change the gizmo size on the fly when the mouse pointer is inside the gizmo.
