For small adjustments the transform gizmo is in most cases “invisible”.  
I think it would not break program consistency if the gizmo would just not get out of scope when the center of the selected body gets out of scope of visibility, but stop at edges of the screen.

Or yes, maybe it would break program consistency since the center of transformation can be relocated, but you could indicate somehow that the gizmo is “floating”.

> I notice that when you try to move something and you zoom in, you can no longer see the gizmo and arrows. Is there a way to make it re-center to your view point or is this a feature that has yet to be implemented?

Man you’re CEO afaik, who else should know?😃 But there may just be a way I’ll check it. Either ways it could just be automatic, if there is a button for recentering.

Yes so it’s a problem -at least for me- with aligment resolution again  
[[Better align tool pls - Feature requests - Shapr3D Community](https://discourse.shapr3d.com/t/better-align-tool-pls/27519)],  
as I think of the cases I’ve encountered this problem.
