Arbitrary center pos?

PerFnurt · 19th June 2005, 11:26 AM

Hi!

Is there some way to set a centre pos. other than by
1) Menu->Object->Re-centre, or
2) Menu->Object->Minimum-centre
to any arbitrary coordinate?

Purpose: To be able to easily rotate objects around some point individually.

By letting my .pov generating plug call ac_object_get_centre it is quite simple, I just

Code:

translate -centrePos
rotate whateverAngle
translate centrePos

but it is a bit restricted as of now to the two mentioned positions.

Or have I just missed something?

Thanks
