Hello Everyone I want to create a sequence of component animations using system.gui.transform. The component should undergo translation, rotation, and another translation. When i checked on [system.gui.transform - Ignition User Manual 8.1 - Ignition Documentation (inductiveautomation.com)](https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/display/DOC81/system.gui.transform) I didn't find the argument of rotation Thanks ---

General Vision components cannot rotate. Sorry. Shapes can rotate, and can do so with simple bindings to their properties. If you need something more complex (but not a component), consider using the Paintable Canvas--it offers total visual control. ---
