· To rotate an image by specifying a number, choose IMAGE, ROTATE CANVAS, and then choose Arbitrary.

Week 5 Lab Topics

Rotating and Spinning Graphics (Pages 280-282)

Rotate Less than 360 Degress

1. Place symbol on stage.

2. Insert a new keyframe in frame 5.

3. In your new keyframe, rotate your symbol 90 degress using the free transform tool.

4. Between your first two keyframes insert a motion tween.

5. You then have a few different options of how to rotate your object. First go to the Rotate menu, and choose “auto”, which rotates the graphic that requires the smallest movement, Clockwise (CW), or Counterclockwise (CCW).

Tip: Make sure you have the registration point in your desired position, because the object will rotate around that point.

Spin a Graphic 360 Degrees

1. Place a symbol on stage and insert a new keyframe in frame 5.

2. Create a motion tween between frames 1 – 5.

3. Choose a rotation direction from the Rotate menu.

4. In the Rotate field, enter the number of rotations that you want your object to spin.
