I just want to confirm that this is an optional step right (and not specific to fbx format)? I think some of our models (usually static background models) have offset on purpose so that when we add the model to the scene, we can just leave the pose at 0 and it'll be at the right location.

If it's an optional step, can we add something like

Sometimes a mesh may have an origin at an offset from the desired location. For example, you may want to move the origin of a robot arm to the base or move the origin of a wheel to its center.

fixed gif path in 5a3af31

Do you see the gif animation playing in preview? It's mostly a static image for me. However, I see the gifs in other tutorials working. Not sure if it's because of size issue.

@iche033, I can see the preview on Github. Or which preview are you refering ?

I'm doing make doc in build dir and seeing the generated documentation files by going to doxygen/html/index.html
