Description

Description:

Sets the rotation of a control set as ST_PICTURE. Rotation will be done within the control boundaries, so if the X and Y are given off center, the picture may get clipped by the control boundaries. Only requires ctrlCommit when fourth parameter is set to false. Procedural textures filled controls do not rotate. Supported control types:

• CT_STATIC
• CT_ACTIVETEXT (Since Arma 3 v2.09.149642)

⚠

Images that touch borders may "bleed" during rotation transformation, to avoid this, make sure the image has 1px transparent padding

Examples

Example 1:

_control ctrlSetAngle [25, 0.5, 0.5];

Example 2:

with uiNamespace do { ctrl = findDisplay 46 ctrlCreate ["RscPictureKeepAspect", -1]; ctrl ctrlSetPosition [0,0,1,1]; ctrl ctrlSetText "A3\Missions_F_Exp\data\Img\lobby\ui_campaign_lobby_background_tablet_radial_left_ca.paa"; ctrl ctrlCommit 0; angle = 0; onEachFrame { with uiNamespace do { if (angle > 359) then {angle = 0}; ctrl ctrlSetAngle [angle, 0.5, 0.5]; angle = angle + 1; }; }; };

Example 3:

_control ctrlSetAngle [25, 0.5, 0.5, false]; _control ctrlCommit 1; // Rotation applies smoothly for 1 second.
