### What do you want to achieve? I’d like to be able to easily rotate a widget around the center of a widget, while using a flex-flow to place the widgets on the screen. Under Inspector → Style Settings → Style(Main) → Transform → Pivot X / Pivot Y, these seem to be specified in coordinates relative to the top-left of the widget. But sometimes I want to flip the widget 180 degrees about its center. And due to flex-flows, the widget may not always be the same size, so the pixel-counts used for Pivot-X/Y aren’t helpful. I think what would help is something similar to Inspector-\>Container-\>Align but Pivot-Align, so we could choose Top/Mid/Bottom vs Left/Mid/Right for the pivot. ### Do you see alternative options and workaround to achieve it? The best workaround we have is disabling flex-flows, but then we cannot guarantee good text layout when considering things like translations. ### Mention some use cases For a two-player board-game, a device might want to have some widgets facing each player. ---

Hi, Thanks for the feedback, this would be a really useful feature, we’ll think about how we could implement it in the future
