About this mod

Have you ever wanted to display your items and struggled to place them because the default Skyrim grab feature is too clunky? This mod replaces the grab feature with a better version that also allows you to rotate and translate the item

  • Keyboard: Hold E to grab an item.

Rotating an Item
  • Gamepad: Press the left trigger and move any of the analogs to rotate.
  • Mouse: Use the left mouse button (LMB) and move the mouse to rotate.

Translating on the X and Y Axes
  • Gamepad: Press the right trigger and move any analogs to translate on the x and y-axis.
  • Gamepad: Use the D-pad to move on either axis
  • Mouse: Use the right mouse button (RMB) and move the mouse to move the item along the X and Y axis.

Translating on the Z-Axis
  • Gamepad: Press LB and move any of the analogs forward and backward to move on the z-axis.
  • Mouse: Adjust the Z-axis position by using the middle mouse button and moving the mouse or just the scroll wheel.

Credits
This mod would not have been possible without Quantumyilmaz, who had the idea to make it in the first place, helped me debugging/refactoring and made it compatible with Grab And Throw
I have also based my ray collector from the one in SmoothCam.
fenix31415 for creating DebugRenderUtils, which I made compatible with skyrim AE, You can find a version of debug render utils that works with both ae and SE in this mod source code.
