Hi there Mr. Life,

> Basically, I have multiple actors in my render window, and so far if I rotate one actor all the actors move with it as well.

Actually what you are doing is interacting with the camera, not the actors.

> I want to interact with multiple objects independently. For example, if I have 5 objects in a render window, I want to only move, rotate and interact with the one selected object; whilst the rest of the 4 objects stay where it is.

Pressing the 'a' key while the render window is in focus should switch you to transforming actors instead of the camera. Pressing 'c' will switch back to the camera.
