  • How to change anchor point for Basic 3d Plugin

    Posted by Mark_crownover on April 21, 2007 at 2:02 am

    Does anyone know how to change the anchor point for the Basic 3D plug-in?? I am trying to animate some doors opening and I can’t seem to get the Basic 3d plug-in to stop rotating from the center of the layer. Of course I need it to rotate from the side like hinges would work. Any one who can help is a genius.

    Thanks in advance,

    Mark

    Nest it in a layer twice the width of your object

    Peter, Thanks for the reply. Do you mean make the plug-in layer twice the width or the graphic element. I have the doors loaded into the workspace as a photoshop file with all layers imported.

    Thanks in advance,
