Help creating png image w/invisible background

#1 Ok,

I downloaded a free graphics tool that has a transparency feature. So my art is looking better. Now I have another question.

From using the fish tutorial I can see you can flip an animation on it's axis either X or Y to change directions. Is there a way to rotate the animation in a similar way. For example if I wanted the sprite to animate down or up could I rotate it in script 90 degrees and if so can someone give me an example.

Thanks

#2 Sure thing. Set rotation using something like this:

%object.setRotation(%number);

Alternatively:

%object.rotation = %number;

Where %number is any value between 0 and 360. Actually, I think you can put any number in for rotation, but keeping it between 0 and 360 simplifies it.

[edit]:

Usually you can find simple things like that by searching the TGB Reference Document; I recommend downloading version 1.1.3 just for the docs. The current ones take forever to open/close tabs. I have a 2.66 Core 2 Duo and it still takes 60 seconds to open one tab.

#3 Thanks Kevin,

I downloaded the 1.1.3 version and have been reading or referencing the docs that came with it. They are very helpful or at least intriguing until I fully understand the language.
