#!N To rotate an object in the Image window, first click 
on the  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   Mode #!EF option box (initially displaying  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   None 
#!EF ) and then select  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   Rotate #!EF from the displayed 
list.  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   Rotate #!EF becomes the current mode and a set 
of axes appears in the lower right-hand corner of the window. 
You can rotate the object in two dimensions (clockwise and counterclockwise) 
or in three by rotating the axes. You can also cause 
the object to rotate "continuously" (i.e., in coordination with the axes).

#!N Position the mouse cursor in the Image window and hold 
down the  #!F-adobe-times-medium-i-normal--18*   right #!EF mouse button: clockwise movement of the 
mouse produces clockwise rotation of the  #!F-adobe-times-medium-i-normal--18*   axes #!EF ; counterclockwise 
movement produces counterclockwise rotation. When the mouse button is released, the 
 #!F-adobe-times-medium-i-normal--18*   object #!EF rotates by the same amount as the axes 
have, assuming the same relative position in the window. #!N #!I0 
#!N  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   3-D Rotation #!EF #!I50 #!N Position the mouse cursor 
in the Image window and hold down the  #!F-adobe-times-medium-i-normal--18*   left #!EF 
mouse button: the mouse now behaves like a track ball and 
the axes move accordingly. When the mouse button is released, the 
object rotates by the same amount as the axes have, assuming 
the same relative position in the window. #!N #!I0 #!N  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   
Continuous Rotation #!EF #!I50 #!N Once you have selected  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   Rotate 
#!EF mode, you can make the object rotate along with the 
axes: select  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   Execute #!EF in the menu bar and then 
 #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   Execute on Change #!EF in the pull-down menu (  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   
Execute #!EF is highlighted). The image is now replaced by a 
dot representation of the object (see rendering options in IBM Visualization 
Data Explorer User's Guide). The movement of the mouse (and the 
axes) is reflected directly and continuously in the movement of this 
dot version. Note: Movement of the axes is essentially synchronous with 
movement of the mouse, but the "response time" of the dot 
version may vary, depending on the machine and configuration. #!I0 #!N
