I was messing around with the hotkeys (pushing all the buttons) and now when I try to scale a row of edges the whole object scales instead of just the row of edges. I THINK it may be when I hit page up.
I got a screen shot of the culprit. it pust a white circle around my object why in scale mode.
so how do I disable it. Its a neet function but I don’t need it now. but will be noted for later 
O… O…
Never mind the circle is added to the mesh when scaling when I hit the letter O
so neat trick but not needed at the moment!
its called the Proportional editing tool
I often end up turning that thing on when I go to hit I or P … and then five minutes later I wonder why the heck everything is moving (answer: because last time I proportional edited something it was at 5x the scale and I can’t even see the circle now).
Funny when I WANT to use it it’s one thing I always do with the mouse.
where is it in the menus? I’m actually glad I found the hotkey because I don’t know if id would have found it otherwise…
bubs, it is in the 3D view header, and is the shape of an O with another O inside it. There is a drop down menu with three options, and it is titled “proportional”
Hope that helps.
