Quick Pivot
This is only my small version of quick pivot.
New: Dual Shortcut - short / long click:
1. quick press shortcut for less then 0.5 s - Quick default Pivot witout menu
2. hold shortcut - popup menu (or hold Shift + press toolbar button)
To choose default option (hold Ctrl while choosing from popup menu)
This method I developed to save shortcuts - to use one for 2 options / scripts (with short click or long)
I can publish it as a open code if anybody is iterested in. Let me know.
Same method will be used soon for Copy Paste DWG and Copy Paste Image
It works as a popup menu or without.
Just drag and drop to max window and go to customize -> category Pixamoon.
It can be installed as shortcut or toolbar icon.
To quickly deactivate Custom Pivot (Affect pivot only) I use shortcut for "Modifier stack jump" (it switch back to Modify panel):

Hi,
Sure, can add that. Just to make sure, do you mean to align to other object pivot ?
Cheers,

it only lacks the "pick
it only lacks the "pick object" option to position the pivot on another object
re: 2015
Hey,
Sorry, just checked that with max 2016 and found the problem. It should be fixed now. Please check new version v1.28

Hi,
There should be v1.19 and v1.25 on turbosquid too but lets try to solve the issue with new version:
Did you try to press and hold shortcut (1s) to open menu ? (with at least one selected object)
It should work with quad menu too - same as with toolbar button. Select object, open quad, press Shift and choose QuickPivot (still holding Shift).
But if this doesn't work or you want to have always quick pivot menu - please use v1.19.

Great!
Great script, I use it frequently. But when I installed the new versions with dual shortcut on Max2015 it doesn't work with quads or keyboard shortcuts. Can you please post a link to v1.17 ?
Thanks for the great script!
