Question How do I Centre the Pivot for an individual face in Probuilder?

    Hello

    I'm using the ProBuilder API to generate meshes from a set of data.

    For some reason the pivot point for an individual face isn't in the centre, nor does it's orientation match the normal. The handle has a global orientation.

    Like this:

    Is there a way in code I can specify the Handle / Pivot point?

    I want to position the pivot point in the middle. With it's orientation matching the forward vector for the face.

    Hmm, i dont know if there is way, but i too am curious. The pivot tools (or rather lack of) are sometimes problematic. OFC, i suppose the reality is, that if you're really invested in your own model, theres a good chance, any real model agent is a far better choice then ProB.

    True. I'm just working on a prototyping tool for generating simple buildings.
