Blender Version

Worked: (newest version of Blender that worked as expected)

Short description of error
[Simple deform modifier does not work properly.]

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
[I am trying to create a low poly well and I have to use the simple deform modifier to bend the objects.
But when I set the Axis to z to make the object bend inwards, it deforms into a really weird shape and does not bend as I expected. When I even tried to set the origin with the eye drop tool it gives me a pop up that says failed to set value. I applied all scale, location, rotation and even tried applying origin to 3d cursor and it still does not work. ]


[Based on the default startup or an attached .blend file (as simple as possible)]

These are the before and after applying the simple deform modifier.
I tried to follow Grant abbit's well but it does not work.

Hi, Thanks for the report. This issues has been reported on tracker a couple of times: T76838: Simple Deform Modifier - Bend Mode

@brecht: Basically, while the existing behavior may be confusing and needs more control besides using the object origin, this kind of improvement is outside the scope of the bug tracker.

That said you may need to create a post on a community website: https://www.blender.org/community/
(Though I am not quite sure so I will keep the report open for others to check)
