        Launch only Start Observer when you have finished the Address objects!
        If you want change something! Stop Observer first !

        I don't know what to say! 😳
        If I make a new session, I have no problem for make any rotations!
        So I must miss something also with your file πŸ˜’
        Maybe orientation, order of Pushpulling...I am in the fog πŸ’š
        Maybe something with the use of the rotation tool? (Click, click and drag,...? )

          Ok I believe have found something πŸ˜‰
          If you rotate your object with the "false second click" you will obtain the "crazy" rotation!
          Position of the object seems the same but the axe rotation will be not for the plug!
          So try it! πŸ˜‰(click on image if scrollbars)

                  hum hum 😒
                  Your video don't show all the screen! ?

                  When you load my first example "Why not" working and draw after a volume in the same file is that the same?

                    Hey.. I think I got it! 😍 you have to set your component axis to the hinge point! omg finally! I tried it and it worked if I wanted an object to have a rotation point from the center, then that object has to have a component with its axis set up at that point!

                    Thanks for your help! I did solve it by looking more closely at your file.

                      So cool for you πŸ˜‰
                      And then use only components as I understand πŸ˜‰

                      PS Maybe you can also try Mover.rb
                      Some similar & more intuitive but you must go to each scenes for address your object position
                      Maybe with this one you will have no problem πŸ˜‰

                        My problem is (was) the same; I could make the animation in SU but couldn't export it.

                        It's been a month, so you probably already know this: You can export the "proper animation" with Whaat's "Smooth animation" plug-in.
