skewed scale/move/rotate manipulator issue

[wjhamilton]

is there any way to make the scale, rotate, and move tools local instead of world? I've tried going to their attributes and changing the settings from world to local but it doesn't seem to help. The issue I'm having is that my manipulators are skewed which really makes a mess of things when I try to do something, below is a picture that shows the problem.

If anyone knows of a way to fix this I would greatly appreciate it. I've had this problem before and find it quite annoying. Probably just forgot to click the right button or something :) The other thing is that for the scale option (picture shown) I don't even have the option to change from world to local, what do you do in that instance?

Hi

Hit "inser" and move nanually the pivot point :)

go to modify->trasformation tools. Then select the options of the tool you want. In there you can change from local to world, (at least for the move tool, not sure about the scale).
