Pixie Pivot for Blender

Set a custom Pivot Point to align your Gizmos or change an object's Origin.

Also works without gizmos (G, R, S transforms).

Pixie Pivot is a Blender add-on inspired by Maya and 3DSMax's pivot systems. Under the hood it is merely a facilitator for placing Blender's 3DCursor, which is what allows us to re-align gizmos, set new object origins (both place and rotate), define a custom plane to flatten geometry or align edges, and more.

So don't be fooled, there is much you can do in Blender by controlling the 3DCursor; pair that with ease of use and full customization, this is a tool every Blender user should have.

Watch the Demo:

ALIGN TO ELEMENT NORMALS

Align your gizmos to follow edges or face normals.

DON'T LOSE YOUR SELECTION

Click and drag to align your gizmo with another element, without needing to change selections.

SNAP TO BOUNDING BOX

You can also snap to mesh centers and bounding box elements.

MULTI-PIVOT POINTS

Supports up to 3 alignment points when precision is needed.

SET ORIGINS TOO

Instead of aligning gizmos, you can also set new object origins (watch the demo, this gif is misleadingly short).

FULLY CUSTOMIZABLE

Change hotkeys and actions, set new startup defaults, colors and more.

EASY TO LEARN

The built-in HUD displays every action and every key you can press, so you're never lost.

GLOBAL ORIENTATION

Switch between Object orientation or global orientation at any moment.
