    I would like to make a circle rotate -11.5 degrees when clicked and an additional -11.5 degrees with each additional click.

    I was able to make the 1st rotation but I cannot get additional ones to work. I have tried having different circles placed on top of each other and hiding and showing and that does not work. They seem to keep showing up regardless. Am I missing something?

    Any ideas?

    Thank you

    Try Object>Transform Again

    Perhaps you misunderstood my question. I want to click the object in the swf file and it will move an additional 11 degrees each click.

    How does “transform again” work in an animation?

    Oh I don't know then. That's not what I thought the question was.

    Sorry. I'll take a look and see if I can figure something out.

    Instead of animation, what you need is a multi-state object. Create states for each amount of rotation you wish to display. Then create a button that when clicked, performs the action: Go To Next State. If you want to make it look like the user is clicking the wheel, make the button directly on top of the wheel, with no stroke or fill. The only thing is that since 360 isn't evenly divisible by 11.5, the last click would rotate less than all the others. It'd take the user 31 clicks to rotate the circle completely. If you could make the rotation 12 degrees, it'd be smooth all the way around. But I'm guessing you have a specific reason for choosing that number.

    Thank you. I got it to work. It was pretty straight foward.

    Just one question, can you make one object have two different object names and therefore two different sets of object states?

    Thank you again.

    I don't think that's possible. What were you hoping to make happen by doing that?

    Thank you for answering.

    I wanted it have another button to make it go back 40 degrees. Also, is there a way to ease these states as an animation does? They seem to be very choppy?
