Is there a wa to enable the manipulator on blender 2.8? if I look for it on the search (spacebar) menu it seems not to exist.
HI mimasweets, you can turn the manipulator on, if on the top right of the 3D Viewport, in the pop down of the 'bow and arrow' you check the Object Gizmo's like so:
You can also turn on the Gizmo's (as the manipulators are called now) for Rotate and Scale.
Thanks, i guess the name change makes sense since everyone calls them gizmo anyway.
