My move tool seems to suddenly be locked to the object center at all time.

Question

So before my move tool would move to the selected face, but now it seems to be locked to the center of my object at all times. It still moves the selected face, but it is annoying because I have to zoom out to use it. Did I press something to lock the move tool in place? I searched around and couldn't find a way to unlock it. Thanks!

Solution

Hey there,

It's possible that your pivot point might be set on your 3d cursor, and maybe your 3d cursor is in the center of your object. If you change the pivot point to any of the other options, that might solve the problem.

Hey bbartimaeuso,

I don't know of an option anywhere to set this to the centre of the object.

The only way I know of is as cchrislim mentioned, the 3d cursor at the object origin and set as the pivot point.

Setting the pivot point to Bounding Box center fixed it! I must have accidentally changed this at some point. Thank you both for your help!
