Anchor Point (design)

An anchor point in design refers to a specific position or reference mark used to anchor or align objects within a composition. It determines the point around which an object scales, rotates, or transforms. For example, in graphic design software, an anchor point might be the center of an image, the corner, or any custom point chosen by the designer. Proper positioning of anchor points allows for precise control over how objects move and change, ensuring adjustments happen in the desired direction and manner, making the design process more efficient and accurate.
