Description: The pivot-point should be remembered after being custom-set, with a separate button to re-set the pivot point to default. (in case you lost it off-screen) Or there should be a setting (system-wide or toggle per object) to remember it. And a new button to re-set the pivot point to it's default. The side-bar under properties>rotation would be a place to have them too. Here is an example movie of how it works in Inkscape (and why): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tpVjhl0lVeo see also: https://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/136986/two-problems-with-pivot-points/ Steps to Reproduce: 1. create a shape (triangle) 2. go to rotation mode 3. click object twice, move pivot point to a corner of the triangle 4. rotate triangle (it rotates around the corner) 5. select anything else 6. re-select the triangle and try to rotate it, it will rotate around center, not it's corner. The pivot point has jumped back. Actual Results: When trying to make an umbrella, copies had to be rotated correctly in one move, or the point had to be re-set again. Expected Results: It should remember the pivot point to remain in place when rotating the same object twice. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No OpenGL enabled: Yes Additional Info: Once set, you can copy the object and it is remembered in the copy once. But once de-selected it is lost. When accessing the rotation via [right-click >position and size > rotate] twice, it resets in between, because right-button is de-selecting Derivative of https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=77815 (Which should probably by set to fixed, as that part works)
Created attachment 143243 [details] rotatedTriangles try rotating the triangles around the center without re-setting the pivot point
Yep, would be useful.
