Why there's no tool to move origin point in edit mode? Why there's no straight tool to move the origin in edit mode? The tool is only available in Object mode, like that handy ctrl+ . or cmd+.  .
I'm just curious , there must be some good reasons for this. Can someone explain ? it's been a question for me for quite long. I think this tool shold be applicable for both edit and object mode.
You may not be able to drag an object's origin around in Edit mode, but, at least, with the shipped  '3D Viewport Pie Menus' &gt; 'Origins Pie' add-on activated,you have the options, in Edit mode, to snap the origin of a Mesh to the cursor, or to element selections.
It seems not fully implemented for Curves: it toggles me out of Edit mode if I call 'Origin to Selection', before doing the right thing,  and flat-out refuses, if I call 'Origin to Cursor'.
