setPivotMatrix with MergeMeshes

[Dad72]

Hello,

When using MergeMesh and selecting the object with pickedPoint. The pivot is at the coordinate 0, 0, 0 of the scene even if the objects is a 20, 20, 20 for example.

How do you put the pivot in the center of the merge objects?

The pivot movement works well on a normal object, but not when you merge several objects

Example here, you can see that the pivot is in the center of the scene and not in the center of the object that was merged.

Use the new setPivotPoint method:

Ah, ok, cool. Thank you Adam

In fact, it is still at point 0, 0, 0 the pivot when the object is merged with scene.pickedPoint()

Are you expecting the edit control to be in between the boxes?

[adam]

The pivot point is not at 0,0,0.

Yes, The gizmo should be between the two box. To the middle of the object as on your first PR

I'm not familiar with that edit controller.  It seems to be ignoring the pivot matrix.

[Dad72]

Indeed, the gizmo works with the rotation, but not the translation and scaling.

line 118, I correct in using this.meshPicked.position  instead of this.meshPicked.absolutePosition

Thanks
