I have a small challenge,

I want have a multihead weigher and hopper with a selection funnel wich we can rotate for selection of the filling of the hoppers.

I would like to animate the funnels, so i want to rotate them. 

Sofar I can only move them over the X-andY axis.

I hope someone can help me with this topic

hi plewandoski,

I already taken tha into consideration, to make small images of the funnels and animate them by visibility.

If there is not a solution of a rotating movement I will for sure use that.

But the rotationg movement would realy help me for future projects.

Hello,

If you  know the rotation position of the object which you want to be rotate as per variable values then create the one graphic list of the all rotation positions. Assign this  graphics list with that variable. So as per variable values the object will change as per graphic list and you will feel that object is rotating.

Hello Weissflog,

please tell us which runtime (comfort/advanced/professional) you're using, when asking questions.
It helps us answer.

For example if you use WinCC Professional, you can rotate by using a script.

If you use WinCC Basic/Comfort/Advanced you can use the graphics list, like DJ_1 mentioned.

Here is a tool for creating a rotation of an element and saving it as several single pictures which you can use for the graphics list:

• "Toolbox for HMI Projects"

  --> See chapter "Simplified Engineering"

It's similar to the way the "Gauge Controls for Basic Panels" in the chapter "Increase Clarity" were created.

Hi Guys,

I managed to do this like you have sugested.

And for the future I'll take your advise to give more detailed info about my runtime.

Thnx.
