Nine-point anchor point positioning panel for After Effects with selectable skins.

What skinAnchor does

skinAnchor is a PENCIL Park panel for repositioning layer anchor points. Nine positions covering top, middle and bottom across left, center and right let you click where the anchor should be, and it moves there.

Holding Shift adjusts the layer's position while keeping the anchor stationary, and Alt-click opens the skin menu. The skins change the panel's appearance, from sleek to quirky. It works across the timeline, so animators moving many layers can set anchors quickly.
