Is it possible to specify an objects center of rotation.
I cant for the life of me find it anywhere.

You could do this relatively easy in sketch.

Fundamental and sorely missed feature/option

Yes, please add centre anchor points for rotating! ✌️

Yeah, this feature is needed, especially where prototyping is key. I require an off center rotation, but when animated it does all sorts of weird movements.

It’s crazy you can’t change the rotation registration point of an object. What?!

This is an awesome trick. I was fooling around with plugins whit shitty UX, happy I found your post!

Thanks! I kinda wanted to make a plugin for this too. Do you think if a plugin allowed you to specify an anchor point and then put the object in a frame with the center at that point it would work better than plugins you tried? All on-canvas editing, no UI, just simplifying what’s already possible natively. Or is this also bad UX? 😃 It’s tough to make a plugin any other way due to the way plugins work in Figma.
