Hi, I’m an animation student and this is the first time I study programing and Python.

My doubt is the following: I have two objects in a maya file: “pSphere1” and “pCone1”, and I want to place the pSphere1 center at the center of pCone1, (by center I mean pivot; I want both pivots to be aligned). pSphere1 is the one that should move to the position of pCone1. pCone 1 doesn’t move.

So, I was wondering if there is a command in Python that can center both object’s pivots.


What I have tried:

In rigging lessons we saw that you can align the center of an object to the center of another object by parenting them, and then, set the child's translation and rotation to zero.

But I'm not sure that this is the best way to do this. So, I was wondering if there was a command for that.
