with pivot you can move the axis but not accurately to positions like max xyz
the ablity to move the axis to max z, min z max y ,min y, max x, min x, of the object's bounding box also combinations ie max xyz, max xy min z. are needed
that makes measuring between objects easier . many people have been using that method for years:) I don't see any access to boundingbox on objects , just widgets [and uv?] where is boundingbox for object [in model side it is the same as the selectionbox]

A piAxis tool for Workspace is a must_have.


I don't mean a piAxis-like tool.

I mean the same behavior :

- Left-clic for snap min X.

- right-clic to open a menu for the other snap min/max axis.


This is a genious workflow that makes trueSpace superior to many other softwares for architecture and design work.

By the way, I think it is just too bad it never get implemented in tS as one of its tools, like mirror or shell extensions, before.
