Is there posibility to move origin of object in DB?

For example can I move origin of box object from its centre to one of the corners of box?
By origin I mean point which coordinates determine its placing in 3D space or around which box is rotating when rotation comands are used.

thanks...

You can alter the origin of an object by using offset limb. If you offset limb 0, which is the root limb every object has, you can offset the origin of the object.

cooool! that was something I wanted to know too

is it also possible to set the pivot point for a camera? or is it possible to place a camera in a limb hierarchy or to attach a camera to an object? (not to the object's pivot point)

I'm just thinking about this because it would be easy to let a camera rotate in a system like used in 3rd person games
