How do I 'center the pivot' onto this block?

I am wondering how I would center my scale pivot onto the highlighted block, so It would scale uniformly. Is there a way to move the pivot like in maya? Thanks.

Maybe RMB → Set Origin → Origin to Geometry?

nope! it remains the same

Can you show an example?

It looks like you have your pivot point set to the 3d cursor like this:

Change it to median point so it will pivot on itself.

In case you aren’t aware of this add-on… I find it for more efficient, than having to deal with that 3D cursor.
