Finally, thank you!!! Hard to find a good tutorial these days. Everybody wants to move fast and skip the basics. I would have learned blender 10 years ago if the tutorials were simple and to the point.

We're on 3.1 now, and instead of a "Set Origin to bottom" or something, I've just had to do this on 31 individual cubes.
Why does Blender have so many amazing workarounds for so many things, but such a drawn out process for this?!

I just ran into this problem. when I was trying to use a mirror modifier. and it kept on clipping into the geometry and your video helped. short and sweet. Thank you very much.

Best tutorial ever, quick and to the point.

W tutorial, showed everything that needed to be showed about what was said

To take an uncentered object and put the core at the very center… (without changing its place back to 0, 0, 0) select the object/collection. Go to Object at the top bar on the left. Set origin > origin to geometry.

Thats tutorials which we are deserved. Simple moving to origin...

Thank you! I just wanted someone to quickly answer this one question and didn't want to sit through a 7 or 12 minute tutorial to get the answer

Thanks for the help. Sometimes I feel the menus are a bit counter intuitive, but this cleared things up.

Took me FOREVER to find this video. Finally.

How do I tell blender which face is the bottom? I need to change this in order to use the conform object addon. Thanks

[christophercrocker]

Thank you so much for this no other tutorials gave me the answer I needed

[SweetLitzLM]

I want to know if theres a way to "zero" the position of the object without sending it to the middle of the world origin.

[lucgrom]

OH MY GOD THANK YOU SO MUCH I WAS STRUGLING WITH THIS FOR MONTHS

[pops]

Thank you for this bruh, I was having problems with the mirror modifier because the mesh was intersecting. Definitely subscribing👍

[nounix]

how do you set the origin point to the bottom (or top, or corner etc) to a GROUP of objects all together?? When I select them all and hit Control-Option-X (to launch the Pie menu) and then hit "origin to bottom", it either does nothing at all, or it sets the origin to bottom on the first object I had selected only... THIS IS SO FRUSTRATING (when there are MANY objects that you need to set the origin to the bottom for)... Any ideas??

[OneWeirdGuy]

I have an model that is rotated and I want to set the current rotation to the new zero rotation without the object rotating, how would I do that?

[DHPshow]

Is there any faster way of doing this? I find this a bit tedious

[mnnm]

Thx a lot. Now im just missing the shortcut for blender 3.x versions. Does anybody know?
