Hello,

I have an rect and I want rotate it around a point. The rect is for example 1000x1000 pixel, now I want to rotate it around point 800, 350, how to set the anchor point?

That is a math thing, not a anchor thing.

You can use code from SSK2 to do this:

Hi @andreaszdw,

Try use Extended Anchor Points

Have a nice day:)

That is right.  You could use extended anchors and simple rotation too.  Nice catch @ldurniat!

The only trick will be converting from anchor space to pixel space, but that isn’t too bad.
