Automation: Rotate Objects

Rotate (spin) cards, pieces, and dice.

Objects

Click the button to enter selection mode, from selection mode click on holders to choose the holders in which cards/pieces/dice are rotated.

Use the button to allow players to choose specific objects from a list with an Automation Question.

How Many To Rotate

When set to Top Card Only, only the top objects in specified holders will be rotated. Otherwise the entire pile/piles will be rotated.

Rotation

Determines how to rotate the relevant objects.

Fit to holder will upright each object that doesn't fit into the holder containing that object. e.g. A rectangular card that is upside-down will remain at 180 degrees. A card rotated 45 degrees in a non-rotated holder will be uprighted. A square card (width = height) rotated 90 degrees will remain at 90 degrees.

Counterclockwise and Clockwise will rotate objects one "step" to the left or right, relative to the current rotation of the object. The steps are specified on the card deck.

Randomize will set the rotation to a random angle, from the angles specified on the card deck.

Set To... disregards the current rotation and sets cards to the specified rotation.

Set Rotation

Used with Set To... to specify the new rotation.
