Setting an Anchor Point

[Dane_Willacker]

How can I set an anchor point to the center of a UI element? So instead of having it on the top left corner, it’ll be in the center (vertically and horizontally).

For example, If I were to import an image for a button and use it as a UI Overlay. Then, I want to center it using absolute position at 50%. So the image is always centered. Currently when I do this, it is measuring relative to the left side of the image. So ill have to set to 37% to make to look like its in the center, but that does not translate well to every screen size.

In other programs, there are anchor points. Where things like the rotations and percentage all relative to.

The UI system in Studio is a bit different than other game engines. It’s closer to CSS where the intention is to support any aspect ratio.

Here’s how I setup an image to be centered on the screen, for context:
