anchor

Image Anchor. Defines the anchor point of the image, solid color, or text bounding box rectangle, before applying transforms (crop=, scale=, rotate=, flip=). Also serves as the center-of-rotation for rotate=.

anchor= *coord*

anchorN= *coordN*

The anchor point is transformed with the image and becomes the layer origin point (unless origin= is specified as well, in which case anchor= is used only as the center-of-rotation for rotate=).

anchorN=0,0 places the image anchor at the center of the source image. anchorN=-0.5,-0.5 or anchor=0,0 is at the top-left corner, and anchorN=0.5,0.5 is at the bottom-right corner of the source image.

Properties

Source image attribute. Applies to the current layer or to layer 0 if layer=comp.

Default

If anchor= is not specified, catalog::Anchor is used. If catalog::Anchor is not defined, the center of the image rectangle is used (same as specifying anchorN=0,0).

Text layers involving textPs= and layers involving clipPath= may have different default anchors.

Example

See “Example C” in Templates.
