In the Model ribbon toolbar, reset pivot is not available until you first edit pivot

Problem

When first starting Studio, I have noticed (this has been going on for quite a while now) that the Reset Pivot function is not available until after you first select/activate Edit Pivot. Once that is done, you can then Reset Pivot. The Reset Pivot command stays available even if you turn off pivot editing mode.

As for plugins, I have a bunch that are installed, but very few are enabled. The ones that are enabled are listed below with links to their details page on the Roblox store website:


Expectations

I expect the Reset Pivot functionality to be available immediately when first starting Studio without having to active Edit Pivot first.

yeah I always have to double tap to correct a models pivot. I wouldn’t say it’s a bug but it should be enabled by default.
