I can’t seem to change the registration point of a MovieClip in Flash (I’m using CS3, but with AS2.0). Using the free transform tool will only move the transformation point (the little circle), not the registration point (the little cross). I need to tell another MovieClip to move to this one’s x position, and that won’t work properly if its registration point isn’t centered.

Any ideas?
