Mesh position/rotation after changing pivot and parent

[carolhmj]

But I still wondering that is this setParent() working as intended? At least I thought that this method would also take into account the pivot change made to the mesh and that should not affect the position/rotation in the way it now does in my example scene?

It does take that into account! If you use setParent on both with the pivot, they end in this position:

While if you don’t, they’re like this:

I changed the scene a bit in an attempt to make things a little bit clearer. I’m drawing the pivots as yellow balls, I’m also not rotating the axis along with the node (so that we have a fixed reference point) and I set the 45 rotation on the parent without switching to the otherNode at first:

And then, after switching to the other node:
