Hi! I’ve looked at the boundingBoxGizmo before and it’s worked great. However, when I just got back to it I saw some weird behaviour in the example playground: > **[Babylon.js Playground](https://playground.babylonjs.com/#4TBMBR%2333)** > > Babylon.js playground is a live editor for Babylon.js WebGL 3D scenes If you try and rotate the mesh using the gizmo it does nothing. From the console I can see this warning: `BJS - [11:20:55]: Unable to use a rotation gizmo matching mesh rotation with non uniform scaling. Use uniform scaling or set updateGizmoRotationToMatchAttachedMesh to false.` I’ve tried setting the updateGizmoRotationToMatchAttachedMesh, but that also doesn’t make it work. Is there something else I have to implement to make this work again? Thanks! ---

cc @Cedric, but as the console warning says, rotation gizmo doesn’t work with non uniform scaling, so I’m not sure you can do something about that. ---

Hi! Thanks for your quick response. The thing is, it used to work so I was wondering what changed. Thanks to your comment I did realize that I misread the console warning and I thought it mentioned non uniform rotation. So I’ll continue on finding out how I can change the non uniform scaling 😃 ---

Oh, non uniform scaling is just when one of the xyz values isn’t the same as the others. But even if I make it uniform in this example I can’t rotate the meshes. > **[Babylon.js Playground](https://playground.babylonjs.com/#4TBMBR%2398)** > > Babylon.js playground is a live editor for Babylon.js WebGL 3D scenes So maybe that warning was about something else? Since the issue is still there even when the scaling is uniform. ---

Oh, even more interesting. If I move the models from either the first or second playground and then try to rotate them with the boundingboxgizmo it snaps to a certain rotation and is then frozen again. ---

Ah, you’re right, it’s just the boundingbox gizmo that doesn’t work. ---

This used to work in previous versions though, so in version 5.2.0 I can rotate a mesh using the bouningboxgizmo even if the scaling isn’t uniform. ---

cc @Cedric, I think there was some bug when using the rotation gizmo, that’s why it now logs a warning instead. ---

it looks like the same issue as : [Bounding box rotation in Gizmo is not working - #2 by Deltakosh](https://forum.babylonjs.com/t/bounding-box-rotation-in-gizmo-is-not-working/37245/2) idk why or how it broke. I’m on it.
