Using Offset Sprite you can achieve this which offsets it's central point. Example:
sync on : sync rate 60
manID = 1
manImage = 1
manX = 200
manY = 200
viewID = 2
viewImage = 2
viewOffset = 60
// create sprite images
cls rgb(255,0,0)
get image manImage,0,0,20,20,1
cls rgb(255,0,255)
get image viewImage,0,0,80,80,1
// set up man sprite
sprite manID, manX, manY, manImage
// offset it to move it's centre point to the middle of the sprite
offset sprite manID,image width(manImage)/2,image height(manImage)/2
// set up view area sprite and offset it so it's at it's middle and position infront of the man
sprite viewID, manX, manY, viewImage
offset sprite viewID,image width(viewImage)/2,image height(viewImage)/2 + viewOffset
// once the sprite is offset you don't have to offset it everyframe, it's will always stay at it's offset.
do
r# = wrapvalue(r#+0.5)
rotate sprite manID, r#
rotate sprite viewID, r#
sync
loop
