To answer my own question, it appears that Auto Layout is breaking the setFrameCenterRotation behavior. The moment I disable Auto Layout, it seems to rotate around the center as I would expect. An aside, I noticed that rotating with the animator has a very strange animation. Instead of spinning around the center, it seems to simultaneously translate and rotate which creates a wobbly (seasick) animation while its rotating. I don't think it is very usable as is unfortunately. -Eric -- Beginning iPhone Games Development http://playcontrol.net/iphonegamebook/ _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
