Channel Rotation
Rotation can occur around the X, Y, or Z-Axes. Rotation values are shown as a spin number on the
menus.
The pivot point of the rotation (point of rotation) can be set to any point on or off the plane of the
channel to produce a variety of creative effects. The default pivot point is the center of the channel.
A rotation of
1.000
is equal to a
360º
rotation (one complete revolution).
• A rotation value of
0.250
is equal to a
90º
rotation.
• A rotation value of
0.500
is equal to a
180º
rotation.
Rotation can be adjusted from
0.001
to
20.000
in either direction (-20.000 to +20.000), so you can
create an effect that involves up to 40 complete rotations. The greater the rotation value (negative or
positive), the more times the channel will spin around the pivot point.
X-Axis Rotation
The channel rotates horizontally about the Y-Axis. A positive rotation will spin the channel from left
to right and a negative rotation will spin it from right to left.
X-Axis Rotation
Y-Axis Rotation
The channel rotates vertically about the X-Axis. A positive rotation will spin the channel from top to
bottom and a negative rotation will spin it from bottom to top.
Note Changing the position of a channel in 3D space does not change the
pivot point. The pivot point is relative to the channel. For example, if
you adjust the pivot point to the top right-hand corner of the channel,
then move the channel, the pivot point will still be at the top right-hand
corner of the channel.
