Fuchur Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 Hi! I am a long time user of A:M but sometimes even we have newbee-questions So: How do you set the pivot of a model to a new position? When I model a character and rig it and than I want to reset the pivot of the model (in the model-window) to a new position so that for example the feet of my character are at the 0 / 0 / 0 point. I could translate the geometry and after that the bones with a translate-comment on the highest hierachy-level, but I wounder if there is a way to just set the model-pivot with a number-input like "Set new pivot to 50 cm lower."? Thanks for your time and your answers *Fuchur* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtpeak2 Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 Hold the 'ctrl' key down while translating the root bone with the translate manipulator. This will move the geometry with the bones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
