Rotating overlay [ADVANCED DIRECTING]

So, I’m trying to rotate my overlay 1.3 degrees clockwise from the position -7.5 degrees (which is an anti-clockwise position). I’ve already rotated it to make it -7.5 degrees however I want to rotate it again so it turns 1.3 degrees (if that makes any sense whatsoever). Every time I try to rotate it 1.3 degrees from its original position (-7.5) it goes all over the place. I’ve tried scaling, shifting and swapping codes around but it still doesn’t work. I also tried to visit @Dara.Amarie 's page on overlays but everything I do doesn’t work. Please help!

Here’s my script:

@overlay CLOCKHAND create
@overlay CLOCKHAND opacity 1

@overlay 5467067198799872_CLOCKHAND shifts to 28 301 in zone 1
@overlay 5467067198799872_CLOCKHAND scales to 0.386 0.386
@overlay CLOCKHAND to layer 3
&overlay CLOCKHAND rotates -7.5 anchor point 0 0.5 in 0

~# Some more overlays being created etc. #~

music church_organ
@overlay CLOCKHAND rotates 1.3 anchor point 0 0.5 in 0.5
&overlay 5467067198799872_CLOCKHAND shifts to 23 323 in zone 1
&overlay 5467067198799872_CLOCKHAND scales to 0.386 0.386

the degrree are not counted from your overlay podition thay are relaed to the screen…st las I brlieve it is so

dunno it it make sence but if you would repeat the same command the overlay will not turn …it doesnt count the degree together…

so if you start on -7.5 and want to turn it just 1.3 you had to do the math

-7.5 +1.3 = -6.2 and that should be the angle for the code

But I want it to turn clockwise 1.3 degrees more instead of rotating anticlockwise any further. So -6.5 would make it turn anti-clockwise.

first try it.:wink:
