Centre of rotation not resetting?

Post by hayasidist »

Moho 13.5.5 -- the ability to move the centre of rotation is great but ... it seems to be preserved when creating a new shape. I can kinda see why that's useful, and it isn't hard to reset but is anyone else bothered by this:

Open a new document with the one default vector layer.
Create a shape. Its centre is as expected. Now move its “centre” with the Transform Points tool - all works as expected. Leave the points selected.
Create a second shape. Select its points and then activate the Transform Point tool → the second shape’s “centre” is offset as per the moved centre in the first shape.

Just de-selecting all the points puts the centres back where they started out (like I said, not hard to reset!)

I would like to see the origin point preserved with the shape, so if I move the origin and manipulate the shape, when I return to that shape the origin should be exactly where I left it so I can manipulate further.
To cancel the origin change and revert it to the current centre point could maybe be done by double click once selected?
