Photoshop and illustrator

Hi all, I have a little problem with creating hands watch in Photoshop and illustrator maybe some of you can help me.
The problem is that I want to do hands watch, do it, and at the end, when I change the anchor point, it doesn’t save to the position I chose, it actually resets the original point. Is there a setting or way I can save the anchor point where I want. Thank you very much in advance.
The same thing happens with adobe illustrator, when I save it in png the anchor point is not saved to the position I chose

If I get your meaning, the anchor point of the image is set in the facer creator app, not the Adobe app. If you create the image so that the anchor point of your hand is centered both horizontally and vertically then that’s where the anchor point will be in facer creator unless you specify different, which you can do but only at specific quadrant points.

For anyone that’s interested, here is a templet I made for myself to center the pivot point of watch hands. It’s 640x640. Click the image and when it opens download it from there. Also make sure it is still 640x640, the community page sometimes cuts off the bottom of some pictures.

You can also just crop it like this. Just delete the gray background and save it as a PNG (not this image, make your own). Then you dont need to worry about anchor points.

Great Job well Done . You have a good Handle on that . Intrestingly on Image layers you will see you can move the pivot point but then you can not have a Tail/Bob to your Hand . The edge or corner of the image is the pivot besides the Centre .:+1::slightly_smiling_face:

Thx alot Russel for the advice it really helps me, thanks again
