Rotate Method

Description

Rotates the referenced object about the point specified by the angle in radians.

Syntax

Visual Basic
Public Sub Rotate( _ ByVal Angle As Double, _ ByVal x As Double, _ ByVal y As Double _ )

Parameters

Angle: Specifies, in radians, the angle of rotation.
x: Specifies the x coordinate for the point of rotation.
y: Specifies the y coordinate for the point of rotation.

Remarks

If the object is to be rotated about its center point, the origin must be set to its center point.
