AS3 horizontal rotation- how to?

[german01]

Hello:

I have this movie clip on stage (dsp), which I would like to keep rotating horizontally. With the following script it rotates in circular mode from left to right, but not horizontally (left to right or vice versa). How do I rotate it horizontally?

dsp.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, rotateHorizontal);
function rotateHorizontal(event:Event): void
{
dsp.rotation += 0.5;

}

Thanks in advance

then you probably want to use the rotationY property.  there are also rotationX and rotationZ properties you should check.

Thanks! It's I what needed. To rotate right to left I used + speed and - speed for right to left, The final script is as follows:

var speed:int = 2;

dsp.addEventListener("enterFrame", rotateHorizontal);

function rotateHorizontal (event:Event):void {
dsp.rotationY -= speed;   
}

Thanks again.
