These buttons will rotate your selection, the amount of degrees specified in the 'Movement Configuration', around its common center. To see the common center of your selected object(s), you must be able to see the linear handles of the selection. The icons from left to right: Clockwise X-axis rotation . Rotate clockwise around the selection's common X-axis. Anticlockwise X-axis rotation . Rotate anticlockwise around the selection's common X-axis. Clockwise Y-axis rotation .

Move selection (x,y,z) . Here you specify, the distance in units, the move-button should move the selection with. These values can be both positive and negative. For instance; '+8 -16 0' will move the selection +8 units in X-direction, -16 units in Y-direction and 0 units in Z-direction, from the common center of the selection. Zoom factor . This value specify by which factor to enlarge/shrink your selection. You can't specify a value lower than '1', but you can specify floating point values like '1.75', if you so dare. Inflate/Deflate by . By which amount in units, the inflate/deflate-button should change your selection. A negative value will deflate (make smaller) the selection with the number of units specified, and a positive will inflate (make bigger) the selection. Rotation angle . The distance in degrees, the rotation-buttons should rotate your selection. Best values are from 1 to 180, since specifying anything above 180 or negative you could just use the other rotation-button.
