Improvements for the Pivot and Matrix palettes

Hi Stéphane,

I wanted to share a few ideas for improving the Pivot palette and related actions. I use it a lot — maybe a bit too much :sweat_smile: — and while it’s already super useful, a few tweaks could make it even smoother to work with:

  • The Pivot palette could auto-hide after use.
  • The Join + Separate action should restore the original pivot points (they’re lost at the moment).
  • Reset options could be bindable to custom shortcuts, so we could create our own tools — for example, a quick “Bottom” function.
  • And ideally, the “Bottom” action could apply individually to meshes, not globally.
    Small bonus suggestion:
  • In the Matrix palette, a “Floor” option would be great to automatically move a mesh to the zero level on the vertical axis (the green one).
    Thanks again for your amazing work on Nomad — these small refinements could make everyday pivot workflows even faster and more natural!

I agree especially when separating joined objects, all pivot points are lost.
