Transforming and selecting any 3D model
Initially, we may find Lumion very restrictive in the way it works with the content placed in our project because we need to select the correct category every time we want to work with a 3D model. However, we can bypass these restrictions by using the option to select and move any 3D model in our world without selecting a category. Let's see how we can do that.
Getting ready
To apply this recipe, check whether you don't have any 3D models locked, and keep in mind that if you are working with an imported model, you need to have the Import menu selected.
How to do it…
