Gizmo Select the Pivot Tool to reveal the location of the Model's Pivot Point. Left click and drag a colour coded arrow to adjust its location in the X, Y, or Z axes. Hold SHIFT to snap movement to 0.5 voxel increments.
Menu Right Click the Pivot Tool button for two options: Set to Floor - set the Y coordinate of the Pivot Point to 0 (drop it to the bottom center of the volume) Set to Center - set the X, Y, and Z coordinates to be the exact center of the volume.

Select the Pivot Tool to reveal the location of the Model's Pivot Point. Left click and drag a colour coded arrow to adjust its location in the X, Y, or Z axes.

Hold SHIFT to snap movement to 0.5 voxel increments.

{% hint style="warning" %} Pivot Tool menu options are only accessible by right clicking the button. {% endhint %} {% hint style="success" %} **WORKFLOW TIP**\ You will often need to move the pivot point to the center and bottom of a Model. Set to Center first, then Set to Floor for a fast workflow. {% endhint %} {% hint style="info" %} Rigged Assets created in the Animator combine multiple Models using their Pivot Points. The Pivot Point of a rigged Asset is the origin point of the scene where the 3 coloured axes meet, which is determined by the Asset's design in the Animator. {% endhint %} {% endtab %} {% endtabs %} ### ![](/files/OXie20nqGHuGNUKWYVKp) Volume Resizer {% tabs %} {% tab title="About" %} The volume resizer is a tool used expand the workspace box within the modeler. \ This tool is to create a fast and easy way to edit the workspace for your models.

The result is referred to as a **frame asset**. {% hint style="warning" %} Uploading custom content for use with Video and Audio Streaming behaviours is limited to The Sandbox and select partners. These features are in development for public use. {% endhint %}

The following logic options can be applied to a **frame asset** in Game Maker:

For updated guidelines and creative techniques using the Frame tool, visit [フレームアセット](/jp/creators/voxedit/creative-guide/asset-guide/frame-assets.md) in the Asset Guide. {% hint style="danger" %} **SPECIFIC REQUIREMENTS** * The Model's volume dimensions **must be even values** (i.e. 64x64x2, 120x40x6). Uneven values on any dimensions will make the asset incompatible with Game Maker's logic tools. * The asset must **not be animated** * **Don't move or rotate the node** linked to the model with the frame area. The projection is locked at the position on the model in relation to the \[0,0,0] coordinate. If you move or rotate the model, the projection area won't match inside the Game Maker.
If these guidelines are not followed, the image may not display correctly, or the Game Maker may not recognize it as a proper frame asset and will not allow the display logic to be applied in Game Maker. {% endhint %} ### NFT Information {% hint style="info" %} The NFT Details Display component is often used on frame assets to provide marketplace information about the displayed media:
