Graphic Functions: Rotation, Position, Scale

Y Rotation

The Y Rotation parameter rotates or indexes the selected Graphic Object around the Y axis with 16-bit precision. You can index the rotation or set a continuous rotation creating a horizontal flip at variable speeds.

This parameter lets you view an object from a different angle by turning the object. You can also view an object from a different angle by changing the viewpoint in space for the composite image, (see Global Viewpoint Mode on page 100).

Default DMX Value: 32768 (50%)= No Y Rotation
