+Pivot Point
+***********
+
+The Pivot Point is primarily used in operations such as Rotate and Scale.
+It defines the point around which the strip image will be rotated or scaled.
+Using drop-down menu in the header of the Preview, you can change the location of the pivot point.
+
+The *Pivot Point* is also extensively used in the 3D Viewport.
+
+Bounding Box Center
+   The bounding box is a rectangular box that is wrapped as tightly as possible around the selection.
+Median Point
+   The Median Point is the points that is closest to all the origins of the selected strips.
+   You can think of it as the midpoint of the area that is covered with the selected strips.
+2D Cursor
+   Sometimes you want to rotate a strip around a specific point in the Preview.
+   Therefore, you can set the 2D Cursor and change the Pivot Point accordingly.
+Individual Origins
+    If multiple strips are selected, you may want to rotate or scale these strip around
+    there own origins instead of for example the Median Point of all selected strips.
+    For example, if you have three portrait strip's of faces,
+    you probably want each face to be rotated around its individual origin.
