Change Axis Point of Rotating Shape

[chiligoldman]

Hi.

I want to create a rotating shape that looks very much like the second hand of a watch. Right now, my rotation axis is in the middle of a line. How do I set that rotation axis to the end of the line? 

Thanks for any advice.

Best, 

Daniel

I don't think you can change the rotating point in 'shapes' but with '3d line' and some math you can achieve what you want.

Hi.

Thanks. That is behaving just how I hoped it would.

Much appreciated.

I have built a clock using some Javascript for the hands rotations.

This page (with code) may help.

ah, yes - javascript - processing - wekinator -

what I like most about Isadora is the Legostein approach.
