How can I move the piviot to center of one subtool, with out the subtool moving

How can I move the pivot point to the center of one of my sub tools and have that as my pivot point for all the sub tools with out any of the sub tools moving in relation to each other?

A bit baffled by this:

I have two sub tools in total to the tool, a hand and a ring on one of the hands fingers.
When I load this tool the pivot point is in the center of the hand.
I want to move the pivot point to the center of the ring.
When I make the ring sub tool active and click set pivot, the ring moves to the pivot point at the center of the hand?
I have tried with and with out local symmetry on but no luck.

Thank you!

Hi Susan,

Apologies for not replying sooner. I’ve written a little plugin that will solve this problem. You can read about it here:

I hope it helps!

Thank you so much for pointing me to that plug in you wrote Marcus.

Just got up and running again from a few week crash, and remembered about this post I did and found your reply today.

Thanks !
