It's handy to know you can hold CTRL and click to set the point rotation occurs around.

At first I thought it was in feet but aligning a corner showed that wasn't right and it wasn't in inches either. After figuring out and setting a Scale Factor and then re-aligning to a corner things are OK except for a rotation that needs to occur. It needs to occur around the corner match point. Is that even possible in QGIS? It is all built into the transform function/tool in ArcMap so all you have to do is set where X and Y are supposed to come from and their final destination and the rotation occurs around that reference point. Is there a way to do that in QGIS? Setting a rotation "around the z-axis" sends things off into the wild blue yonder. . . .
