So I found this (https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues-PC/9-key-to-raise-objects-spins-camera-out-of-control/td-p/8446079) and followed it and now I don't need to use control with the 9 key in order to move objects up, I just press 9 and that works. So that tiny thing is fixed. (And you'll note it involves using the alt key and that it worked!)
But still, I have sims 3 camera on, I turn on move objects and cheats, I hold down the alt key and select an object with the mouse and try to move it- and it only moves according to the grid. I hold down the alt key and try to rotate it and it only turns according to the grid, it doesn't freely spin.
Hi! I don’t know if you still need help, but I was having the same issue on my Mac. I found out that I wasn’t placing the surface far enough away from where I was trying to free place items. I moved it out of the same grid line, so like against another surface for my counters or across the room if it was a dresser, and it worked! Hope this hopefully helps(:
