After the orientation of a parent node is made to change, the Scale Gizmo will also be rotated, which can make it hard to adjust the size along the X, Y, or Z axis. 3DXchange provides a feature for you to rectify the direction of the Gizmo so the angles of the three axis of the node can be align to the ones of the X, Y, Z axis.
Reset Transform can also help you initialize one or more nodes of current size and orientation. The angle of the node will be set (0, 0, 0), and the size, (100, 100, 100).
Select the Root Node of the mesh node to adjust the size and orientation.
Use the Rotate Object tool to rotate the node.
Use the Scale Object tool to scale the node.
Click the Reset Transform button. The current transform status returns to be the initial status of the node.

Note:
After you rotate a node, its Gizmo will be rotated as well. This increases the difficulty as you want to scale the node (uniform scaling excepted).
