A problem with negative rotation

[aarondietzen]

Hi all,

I am trying to create a door component with a customizable angle of rotation for the open door. The rotation is a user defined number. Below is a very basic example:

Upon clicking the doors, both swing open to the user defined angle. But when clicking them a second time, the door that was rotated negative will not rotate back

Weird?

Anyone have any idea how I can get my door to close?

Thanks in advance!
Aaron

[pcmoor]

common problem fixed by putting the attribute within quote marks, "RotZ"

animate("RotZ",-RotationExample!RotationAngle,0)

the case is same for using Current("LenX")

is like using absolute and relative references in a spreadsheet

I dont know the explaination of this behaviour, only the fix
