Orbit object along circular path by 1° increments
I need an image to move along a circular path by 1 degree increments while keeping its orientation/direction when the user presses a button. I know I can rotate an object using the dial feature, but...
Still interested in a better solution if anyone has it.
But I changed by increments to 5°, and decided to use image states instead. Because line axis only gets measured by 180 degree, instead of 180 images, I only needed 36 (per question; I have 3 examples).
I then used excel to calculate X,Y pixel position of the images based on a center rotation point, plugged them into my drawing software (Krita, its free!) and exported the images to be used as states.
I set my axis wheel to still be a dial, but rotate in 5° increments and used the variable it generates to set the image state so they matched.
