      I would like to see this feature some where in the future, where you can move the pivot point when the transform panels are opened. It is not a high priority request, but it would help to make it easier to adjust by not having to close and reopen the panel.

      Here a video of how this would look like when the rotation panel is open, the recording didn't show the transform panel that was opened.

        @FastVector I'm not familiar with AD so I guess I might misunderstood something,
        but in VS the transform pivot can be edited when this button is enabled:

          Yes I know you can. But you can't move the pivot point any more when for example you open the rotate panel (Shift+Alt+R). The only way is to do it before you open it, or close the panel and change the pivot point and then reopen the panel.

          Hope it makes sense.

            @FastVector A modal windows like 'Rotate' here "traps" the focus.

            Not sure how to solve this — perhaps including the CX and CY fields
            from the Transform panel?

              When modal windows are opened, this is a difficult to do.

                If you find an easy way to do it, do it and if not just leave it.

                  @FastVector If you only want a similar result, you can perform a reverse operation in VS. Moving the pivot point first and then making copies is also very convenient.

                  Hope to have an option for the pivot point in the transform.
                  Furthermore, the transform in the shape effects should include all the options available in the Object menu's transform.

                    When using the transform panel (Panels -> Transform), it is possible to use the custom pivot by unchecking the active pivot knob in the panel.
