I can rotate the house when I press x, y or z. Depending on what I press will rotate it along that axis. I can scale also by pressing S, press it scales smaller, press again it scales bigger....the issue I am having is that from what I did, I am confused as to why It does not repeatedly rotate or scale...once I set scaling to true, the display method should keep scaling while it remains true, but it only scales/ rotates once per button press, this makes no sense to me...why is this?
