Lattice Deformation Q: Lattice Center

Hullo,

Alright, I have an object parented to my lattice. I select one “face” of the lattice and move it, effectively stretching the object along an axis.

Now I come back and select my “opposing face” of the lattice. Move it along the same axis, and effectively undoing my stretch (or moving in a kind of wormy stretch and retract).

Problem…either the lattice center (pink dot) or the object center hasnt moved…its still floating back where the object/lattice started.

Is this normal/documented? Or am I doing somethign wrong?

the object center isn’t properly deformed by the lattice

it is known and documented [in the blender 2.0 guide]

Ok. Is there anything I can do to offset this?
