Figure 12.9 Movement and Perspective on the Y-Axis
In Squeeze & Tease, you can change the viewpoint to create a different perspective. You can also
choose to have the viewpoint repositioned along with the image to eliminate perspective effects.
Image Rotation
Rotation can occur around the X, Y, or Z-Axes. Rotation values are shown as a spin number on
the menus.
The pivot point of the rotation (point of rotation) can be set to any point on or off the plane of the
image to produce a variety of creative effects. The default pivot point is the center of the image.
Note — Changing the position of an image in 3D space does not change the pivot point. The
pivot point is relative to the image. For example, if you adjust the pivot point to the top right-hand
corner of the image, then move the image, the pivot point will still be at the top right-hand corner
of the image.
A rotation of 1.000 is equal to a 360° rotation (one complete revolution).
• A rotation value of 0.250 is equal to a 90° rotation.
• A rotation value of 0.500 is equal to a 180° rotation.
Rotation can be adjusted from 0.001 to 20.000 in either direction (-20.000 to +20.000), so you
can create an effect that involves up to 40 complete rotations. The greater rotation value (negative
or positive), the more times the image spins around the pivot point.
