Get halfway through a model and find it's an unworkable mess? Can't add edge loops where you need them? Can't subdivide a mesh properly? If any of this sounds familiar check this course out.

Move a pivot

How do I move a pivot using an expression? What is the variable for this called, for instance "translateX" effects the translation in the X direction, what term controlls the pivot location? Thanks.

If you select the object, go to Window > General Editors > Channel Control. There you'll find a lot of channels that are not available by default. Among them are pivot controls.
