zentara, I work on it a bit at a time... so have't worked on OS issues in a while and don't know a thing about compiling... Will maybe look up your "You need to do some "quadrant checking", so that when you move from one quadrant to the next, the rotation continues smoothly." It looks to me like I need it 2.

But for now I've moved on to trying to rotate the inner ball so as to match the main(when it's closed and the reopend).

# so I need to get the main's angle/degree of rotation

#something like this:

# my ($xref2, $yref2) = $zinc->transform($zinc->group('current'), 1, 0, 0);

# $zinc->rotate($inerbal,*******);

# Am on Windows XP Home # With ActiveState ActivePerl 5.8.7 Build 815 # Also use EnginSite Perl Editor LITE
