# Rotation Pivot

Every **Object** in **Incari** has its own **Pivot Point**. This is the point in 3D space, that the **Object** will be rotated around. One of the most common places to have the **Pivot Point** is at the center of the **Object**, which can be set automatically, using the `Center` button, under **Rotation Pivot** in the **Attribute Editor**.

There are times, though, where you will want to set the **Pivot Point** to somewhere else, such as a hinge on a door. In this case, you can either manually set the `Position` of the **Pivot Point** by editing the values in the **Attribute Editor**, or by using the **Pivot Point Widget** in the **Scene Window**.

Generally it is much better practice to set the origin of your *3D meshes* in your *3D* application, before importing them into **Incari**.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.incari.com/incari-studio/2021.1/getting-started/attributes/common-attributes/rotation-pivot.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
