Sweep pivot

[Rob.c.mayer]

There should be an option within the Sweep modifier to place a custom shape such that it's pivot is where it rises on the base spline.

at the moment, we only have options for the 8 extremes and it's geometric center, and while an offset will have the same net result, the fact that the offset needs to added manually, just to get it to consider the origin again is... inconvenient.

From help file:

"Note: When none of the Pivot Alignment buttons is depressed the pivot point of the section is used as the alignment point"

.... well, then.... I feel dumb...

Thank you for the tip @domo.spaji - I genuinely appreciate it.

I'm gonna slink back to my hovel now.
