Center Brush Pivot

Is there a way to center pivots of a brush?
I've use "reset selected pivot points", but it doesn't move to the center of the brush??
Am I using this tool right?

It would be nice to move the pivot to the center of the brush. For right now I have to manually move it to the center of the brush.

On the "Modify" panel under Brush Pivot Point you should see a "Reset Selected Pivot Points" tool that will do this.

K, I found out why it's technically not centering itself.

1. I've created a simple box.
2. Translated the verts
3. changed selection mode to bruch.
4. I've selected "Reset Selected Pivot Points" tool.

This is where it gets weird. Once I changed my selection mode to brush, the pivot is in the center of my brush. Which is what I'm looking for. So, I move the pivot point and I select "Reset Selected Pivot Points" tool. The popup tells me that it has been reset, BUT, if you look at my screenshot. It's not really in the center of the brush. It seems to have remembered the location of the pivot back when I first created the "simple box".

very weird.
