0 - U axis handle is active
1 - V axis handle is active
2 - N axis handle is active ( default )
3 - Center handle (all 3 axes) is active
applicable only when the manip mode is 3.
alignAlong(aa) [float, float, float] createedit
Aligns active handle along vector.
constrainAlongNormal(xn) boolean queryedit
When true, transform constraints are applied along the vertex normal first and only use the closest point when no intersection is found along the normal.
currentActiveHandle(cah) int queryedit
Sets the active handle for the manip. Values can be:
0 - X axis handle is active
1 - Y axis handle is active
2 - Z axis handle is active
3 - Center handle (all 3 axes) is active
4 - XY plane handle is active
5 - YZ plane handle is active
6 - XZ plane handle is active
