P: Can't move Reference Point while transforming (22.0.1)

Totally agree Dan, but no need to zoom in or out! Just click where you want the reference point, but instead of releasing the mouse button, just drag it a little and the reference point will appear at your cursor. I'm used to it now, and it works almost as fast as the original way.

Looks like this was reported months ago - don't know about anyone else but being able to click wherever I want the reference point is an essential part of my workflow and super annoying now to have to zoom in and out and drag the point...  Please sort it out!  Wish I hadn't udated now just because of this...

Thank you so much for this workaround!! I will literally use this everyday going forward.

Adobe: Please don't give me cool new features if you're going to leave essentials like this broken!

still buggy here too.

I agree with you this is very annoying. But you don't have to zoom out and search for the anchor point. Just act the same as you would do before, and in stead of click where you want the anchor, drag a little bit. The dragging invokes the anchor point, and you can position it where you want.

So, 4 months and several updates later and this bug still exists. You might want to talk to engineering again, because it really seems they don't understand or know that there's a problem.

Why is this still broken? I need to use this hundreds of times every day and the bug is seriously affecting my work.

Please fix this Adobe! It's super annoying to have to drag the anchor on large documents, especially knowing IT USED TO WORK.

Here's the current process:

Zoom out. Squint and try to find the anchor. Attempt to grab it without accidentally moving the layer. Drag to the approximate right spot. Zoom in. Drag it again to the exact spot you want.

vs. the old way:

Zoom to where you want the anchor. Click.

I wrote a basic autohotkey script to listen for transform hotkey, followed by a ctrl alt left click, at which point it moves the mouse a bit, and back.  Should work for this purpose to more or less restore former functionality without having to fiddle with it manually.
