When you hold down the Alt key while adjusting the Anchor Presets in the Rect Transform, it specifically modifies the pivot position of the UI element in addition to the anchors. This functionality allows you to adjust both the anchors and pivot simultaneously, effectively enabling more precise control over how a UI element is placed and behaves within its parent container.

The pivot position defines the point around which the element will rotate and scale, while the anchor positions determine where the element is located relative to its parent. Adjusting both together can be particularly useful for maintaining visual consistency, ensuring that any transformations applied do not disrupt the intended design.

The other options do not apply in this context. Margin position relates to the spacing within the layout and is not affected by the Alt key in this case, while anchor position refers to the fixed points where an element attaches to its parent, which are primarily adjusted without the Alt key. Scale factor affects the size of the object rather than its placement or rotation, and is not directly influenced by adjustments made in the Anchor Presets setting with the Alt key pressed.
