      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:
      Screen Shot 2014-01-09 at 3.43.30 PM.png

      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

        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
