For years I fight with this and the more was my adjustments to this f***ing transformation point, the more my result was far from what I want to get. This simple and clear post was very useful. No more trouble with transformation point!!! Thank you again... Thank youuuuuu Jen deHaan!!!

I haven't seen the transform point inaccessible on a tween, except when 3D is involved (need to use the 3D tool transform point). I'd probably be bettter help to give you exact steps. That's true about the transform being saved when re-applying a tween - you could reset the Transformation category in the Motion Editor in these kinds of cases (the blue arrow in the "Transformation" row). @Jon: Do you have a file you can share with the steps you’re using?

Any way to change the transformation point of a motion tween created with the motion editor? I'm not sure how the thing got moved but it's attached itself to the lower right side of the MC and I can't select it (in free transform mode). I just keep getting the skew tool coming up when I hover over the transformation point because of it's location. I've reset the point for the MC I'm animating and dropped it back onto the stage. I then copied the motion from the animated clip with the incorrect TPoint. However the transformation point location seems to be copied with the motion, arghhh! Any ideas to save me from doing the animation again? Thanks for the great info. Any way to change the transformation point of a motion tween created with the motion editor?

You can set where the registration point is when you create the symbol (that grid in the Convert to Symbol dialog). If you need to move your symbol's content in relation to the registration point after you created it, go into symbol-edit mode and move the content around the registration point. That lets you "place" the registration point wherever you need it to be for the symbol. Hey Liste,
