Move origin of selected points?

Post by uncle808us »

OSX El Capitan Ver 10.11.6 Anime Studio Pro Ver.11.2.1
I have searched for an answer to this but to no avail.
How can I move the origin in selected points? Remember I am using Anime Studio Pro 11.

Thank you.

You can't. This isn't a coordinate stored in the file, but it gets calculated each time you select a bunch of stuff. If you need a pivot point, bind the selected items to a bone.

I think Fazek tools (and probably other newer scripts) allow to change the pivot while moving, scaling and rotating the points.

Script works but in Anime Studio Pro Ver.11.2.1 I get a bunch of pop up notices so I suspect this is made for a newer version,sigh...
hayasidist just fixed a script for me by doing the following quoting him here "Bottom line, a whole lot had changed from 11 to 12... (bezier, multi-touch, ...) so the easy solution was to dig out the V11 release, take the V12 updates and apply them to the V11 base tool from SM."
Could this be done with this script?

I can't find a working link for Fazek tools.
Any idea where I could find the script for Anime Studio Pro Ver.11.2.1 (move origin in selected Points)
Or a search tip?
