Hi.
I am trying to figure out how to rotate the face texture on a font I created. The texture is just a png. I am trying to figure it out in Visual Logic, but I am new to VL. Any insight into how to get this to work would be fantastic!

You can rotate the texture cords on the object itself 

eg here I have a quad position to the rotation of the text

Hi Red.
I see that and I looked at that in VL. I am wanting the texture to keep rotating but slowly through the face of the custom font I made. I am thinking that there would be more to the VL than just the to rotate the texture coordinate on the material. Does this make sense? I have an attachment of my scene also

Hi Red, I ran into this issue not long ago.  Your method does work, but I was thinking how much simpler it would be if this feature was added to Continuous Animations.  Currently there are only Texture Pos X  and Texture Pos Y  options available.  Can Texture Rotation be added as an option to Continuous Animations in future updates?

I'm using XPression 10.5 build 5508

Thanks

You can get the same result as continuous animation using a waveform in VL in your version. 

Regarding it being added as a feature, I'll pass on your request to the dev team.

Hi. Just getting back to this conversation. So Steve did you try to rotate the text face material? I am trying to get the silver face of this 3D text that I have created to rotate slowly. It is a png. I am thinking that it could be a video texture for the face. I am probably just not up to speed with trying to figure it out in VL.
Thank you.

So I just made an AVI of the texture I wanted to rotate and then brought it in as a video material. Easier since I am not skilled in VL at this time, but I am sure this can be done in VL.

No worries, it's a handy block, basically continuous animations but you can change the properties on the fly.
