Negative anchor values

Is it possible to set a negative anchorX value on an imageRect? Or a value greater than 1? I’d like to rotate the imageRect around a point which is outside the image’s boundaries. I’d rather not place it in a group. Thanks!

Hi @elvo,

No, anchor points must reside inside the object’s bounds. You may want to explore this thread in regards to anchoring children in a group:

Thanks Brent, there is useful information on this thread. I like the new anchor functionality, is more stable and straightforward than reference points. I just wish there were no limits in the anchor range. Please consider this option. Thank you again!
