How can I move/scale parts with respect to their rotation?

Above is the same part with orientation of (0,45,0). What I see when I use the move tool is on the left, as you can see the arrow draggers strictly point in the same way with respect to the origin. I want to be able to move this part along its rotated axis rather than what is happening on the left. The same issue applies with the resize tool. I have tried grouping it into a model but it still doesn’t fix it

Thanks in advance, sorry if I’ve worded things badly or if this has been discussed before.

The only way I’m aware of (there’s probably a way to do it without plugins that I’m unaware of currently) is the F3X Studio plugin.

Press Ctrl + L to switch between local space and world space.

Oh my god thank you so much! For months I have held up with this frustration and I am very glad to have finally resolved this. I never knew about this local and world space feature at all
