Moves the center of rotation relative to the image. There is no fixed rotation axis with an image. The axis is independent of the image and is movable. For example, the rotation axis can be placed in the center of the image, on the edge, or off the picture.

To move the center of rotation off the image, you might find it useful to zoom out and activate the wire-frame handles. For more information, see Effect Editor Controls.
