In addition, there are options to set the Transform Presets, as well as enable Object Axes Drawing.

PieCursorPreferences

Tools

  • reset cursor to world origin
  • set cursor to selected object(s), vert(s), edge(s) or face(s)
  • move selected object(s), vert(s), edge(s) or face(s) to cursor

  • set object origin to (averaged) geometry

  • set object origin to active object's origin

Keep in mind

The following two work in edit mode (too)!

Blender traditionally doesn't support edit mode origin adjustments.
That's because adjusting the origin is always both: an object mode and an edit mode operation at the same time.
Due to the nature of how Blender's undo system separates edit mode from object mode operations, you may not be able to undo the edit mode origin adjustment properly.

  • set object origin to cursor
  • set object origin to verts(s), edge(s) or face(s)
