Can't change the pivot of a UI element

Question

Hi!

I am trying to change the pivot of my UI object but it is not allowing me. It is disabled in the editor and if I try to change it with the "Pivot" fields in the inspector nothing happens. I have tried restarting Unity but it didn't change. Why is this happening?

You need to switch from Center to Pivot in the toggle just below the menu:

Pivot

Then you can move it, took me ages to find that!

Glad it helped, took me half a day $$anonymous$$ring my hair out but that was when the beta had just come out so no real documentation. When I spotted it couldn't believe I'd missed it.
