Setting Center Anchors

I think this is a great idea. I understand Figma wasn’t meant to be used for illustrations, but to be honest, the uniqueness of its vector and node system is very useful, and many of us (UI Designers) work for videogame companies, and more often than not we have to find works around some things that could easily be added into Figma. I will create another post with this, but things that come to my mind:

• Supporting different kinds of strokes (even if they can’t be reproduced by CSS, maybe a disclaimer or a warning next to the setting would be fine).

• Sticky nodes (vector’s endpoints), this shouldn’t be so difficult given you already do this in Figjma and when imported from FigJam to Into Figma the behavior is still there. Why can’t we just do it inside Figma?

• Ability to move the anchor point of an element.

How have more people not said this? Completely agree. I do data visualization and I’m trying to mock up a strip plot in an auto layout so that the whole plot resizes based on container size. This means the centers of the circles, not the edges, need to be equally spaced for the auto layout. It’s completely impossible to do without being able to anchor from the center of the circle instead of top left.
