   | Mode:     Edit Mode
   | Panel:    :menuselection:`Tool Shelf --> Tools --> Transform`
   | Menu:     :menuselection:`Mesh --> Transform --> Grab/Move, Rotate, Scale, ...`
   | Hotkey:   :kbd:`G`, :kbd:`R`, :kbd:`S`


Once you have a selection of one or more elements, you can grab/move :kbd:`G`,
rotate :kbd:`R` or scale :kbd:`S` them, like many other things in Blender.

To move, rotate and scale selected components, either use the *Translate*, *Rotate*, and *Scale* buttons,
the transform manipulators, or the shortcuts:

:kbd:`G`, :kbd:`R`, and :kbd:`S` respectively.
After moving a selection, the options in the Tool Shelf allow you to fine-tune your changes,
limit the effect to certain axes, turn proportional editing on and off, etc.

Of course, when you move an element of a given type (e.g. an edge),
you also modify the implicitly related elements of other kinds (e.g. vertices and faces).

Pressing :kbd:`G` twice enters either *Edge Slide* or *Vertex Slide* tool depending on the selection.

You also have in *Edit Mode* an extra option when using these basic manipulations:
the proportional editing .

   | Mode:     Edit Mode
   | Panel:    :menuselection:`Properties region --> Transform`

When nothing is selected, the panel is empty.
When more than one vertex is selected, the median values is edited
and "Median" is added in front of the labels.

Vertex
   The first controls (X, Y, Z) show the coordinates of the selected vertex or the median point.
Space
   The Space radio buttons let you choose if those coordinates are relative to the object origin (local) or
   the global origin (global).

   Global, Local

Edge Data
---------

When an edge is selected, the following options are available. more buttons appear:

Crease
   The crease value of the edge.
