Transforming Shapes

You can move, scale and rotate a shape via the Transform button.

 

When the Transform button is enabled, the shape is displayed with transform controls :

 

ch-effects_shapes-transform-4

Transform controls on shape.

 

You can use your mouse to scale, move or rotate the shape by  dragging an overlay element on-screen interactively.

 

You can perform the same transformations by using your mouse to modify the Position, Scale and Rotation parameters directly via their sliders :

Pivot Points

The Pivot X/Y points define the center of the shape for scaling and rotation. Initially, the pivot points are placed in the exact center of the shape :

You can move the pivot location using the GUI sliders or dragging with the mouse. The shape will rotate around the pivot :
