Now, if I wanted to match these other chairs to this chair, I can do that using Match Transforms. Now, we can find this under Modify, Match Transforms, and as you can see we have a couple of different options here. One matches all transforms, then we have options for translation, rotate, and scale, and then we can also Match Pivots, so let's see how this works. We start by selecting an object, or multiple objects, and then we want to select the main object last, this is the object to which we want to match. And once we do that, we can go back into Modify, Match Transformations. Now, if we select Match All Transformations, all of these objects will jump to the same place…
