Disorientated selection box of a model with rotated parts

  • What are you attempting to achieve? A perfectly oriented selection box for a model with rotated parts.
  • What is the issue? The rotated parts affect the orientation of the selection box, therefore making placement awkward.
  • What solutions have you tried so far? Using transform to change the “root” part of the selection box, and ungrouping and resizing parts before regrouping them.

This is what it looks like:

I prefer it to look like this:

When I had this issue I always just made a transparent part take the shape of the outline I want and group that with the rest and it sometimes worked. I never bothered looking for a solution so IDK if that’s the most efficient fix or if it’s overcomplicated lol.

I guess that’s the best option. Thanks. Until someone finds a better way, I will use this idea.
