Affecting Subparts of an object in quad-view
 

I need to make some changed to sub-parts of an object. I am using quad-view so I can see all side of the object. But I can only make changes to the sub-parts in the main screen. How do I affect the sub-parts in the other windows in quad-view?

Affecting subparts in quad-view
 

In quad-view, select the subpart you are interested in manipulating in the Object tree (upper-left hand corner), and then right-click on the subpart and select the appropriate method for manipulating the subpart from the "methods" menu command in the drop-down menu.

You are not able to use the mouse-manipulation buttons (arrow, turn, roll, tumble, resize, clone) from the upper-right corner of the scene view on subparts while in quad-view.

Hope this helps...
