Edit pivot points

I've come upon a situation where it would be really handy to be able to edit the pivot point on the box object. I don't necessarily mean precisely, just options like top-left, bottom-middle, etc. I need it for adding objects relative to the sides and corners, and for offsetting the rotation. I'm picturing something like the options you have in Flash when you create a new symbol, you have a 3*3 grid to select sides, corners and center.

I can't see any way to do this right now. If it's already possible, please someone enlighten me. Otherwise, I hope this feature can be added, not just for box objects, but for any object that displays on the screen.

I think you can get what you need by adding multiple image points to the Sprite you want to attach things to. They rotate with the Sprite as well.

I'm not using a sprite, I'm using a box. I want to position objects in relation to the box without needing to do any calculations based on its size. Rather than pre-calculating all of the x/y values, I just want to do 'box.x+2, box.y+2' and have the item spawn two pixels in from the top-left corner.

I'm using the 'System - create relative to object' action, but the pivot point is always in the centre and I need to spawn things relative to the corner. That's why I made this request.

Also, not in this case, but maybe in others, it may be necessary to rotate something not around the centre, like you can do in Flash.

Am I just trying to use the box object in a way it wasn't intended here?

I requested this a couple of weeks ago and I believe Rich said it's either done (for next build) or it will be done.
