Design Sketch Basics Sketch Features Selecting, Moving, and Resizing Layers

Is there a way to change or view the anchor point of an object?

When trying to resize an object it appears that the anchor point is on the upper left corner. How can I change that?

There isn't a way currently to define an exact point, but if you hold down Option when dragging a corner handle, you can resize from the middle of the layer.

Keep your eye out for the next version (3.3) as there will be a way to resize from a different edge in the inspector.

Thank's! Are you going to publish more advanced tutorials in the near future?

@yarontamuz I couldn't say, but let's hope there's demand for it!
