Is there a way to choose the reference point without clicking. It would be very helpful to be able to so this for some of my macros, or so I could preselect a reference point (so the grid always appears in a reliable way with the same ref point selected) then use "Click at found image" in Keyboard Maestro.

Use the transformReferencePoint of the latyout window:

app.windows[0].transformReferencePoint = AnchorPoint.TOP_LEFT_ANCHOR;

Hi @MrZZY ,

alternative values for transformReferencePoint can be found in the DOM documentation:
