How do I rotate an object from one end (like the hand of a clock) rather than from the centre?

Do I really need to reposition the object at every rotate to get it to remain in the same place?

Linda,

The simple way is to put the object in a frame twice its length and rotate the frame.

See example

Regards

Brenden

I agree - Brenden is clever

Steve H is also clever as you well know!!

When we were exploring (me doing the exploring under Steve's excellent tutorage and eagle eye!), Steve sent this small publication which has a rotating clock like arm.

Have a look at his publication attached. I don't think he will mind me attaching it.

Cheers

Graham
