Reset Custom Pivot in Maya 2015 Extension?

[pshwayka]

Hi,

I'm running 2015 Extension with SP5.  I am able to reset the pivot within the tool settings menus, but according to the help page referenced below, I should be able to right-click in a scene and select "Reset Pivot Position" or "Reset Pivot Orientation." I'm not seeing either one of those options. Please let me know if I'm missing a setting somewhere.

(Not using the modeling toolkit.  I do know that in the toolkit, if I have "Adjust Pivot" active, I can click outside an object to make it work.)

Thanks!

Hello pshwayka,

Thank you for posting to the Area forums.

This should work however, you first have to be in component mode. Component mode can be activated by clicking the "Insert" or "D" key on your keyboard.

Once component mode is active the right click menu will display the options for the pivot.

Cheers,

Why, yes it does.  Thanks David!
