There is a preference in the Transform Properties to have the transform tool modify the object's pivot.
You can try this if you don't mind your object's pivot being modified. P.S. This option is used by the Maya interaction mode. -- Brent From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Ciaran Moloney Sent: 24 October 2012 10:04 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Scripting question Yeah, it looks like the interactive pivot overrides the pivot parameters of the kinematics property. It lives in its own universe. Confusing...
