The imageRotation property allows for the rotation of an image in degrees. This can be used for nice effects, especially of the image (.png) has a transparent background so the image ‘spins’ on the interface.

The properties of imageX, imageY, imageWidth and imageHeight properties may be used to set the position, width and height of the image in the control. For interesting effects, use data to change the position or size for an animated effect.

To make your interfaces with unique images, portable to be able to share it, please see Portable Interface Development.
