Rotating objects

Objects always rotate around their center. Is there way of moving the point of rotation?

This would be very useful when making an arm wave for an animation for instance when it pivets from the shoulder or elbow.

Just take your mouse pointer and move the rotation point to where you want it. Very simple...

Oh, the little crosshair that appears on the object when you click on it - that's what it's for! Thanks MaryLou!

You're welcome, glad I could be of some help!
