Usage
Select a single or multiple layers. Click on any arrow or the middle square in RE-AP. The anchor point will be repositioned while keeping the position the same. Unfortunately any existing anchor point and position animations will not be adjusted accordingly. Sometimes you can fix things by repositioning multiple times on all of the keyframes. But it's best to reposition before starting to animate the layer.
Disclaimer
This is literally RepositionAnchorPoint but I removed parts of the script. I did not create RepositionAnchorPoint. See the original on aescripts.com
