[Solved] Shape Painter won’t rotate with angle actions

I’m trying to make a simple square with Shape Painter. I used the angle actions (set center of rotation, rotate, rotate toward angle, rotate toward position, set angle), but nothing happens. The square doesn’t spin or change angle.

When I use a normal Sprite, rotation works fine. However, I prefer to use Shape Painter because it looks sharper and more crisp compared to using sprites. I’m also working with lines and other shapes, so Shape Painter fits better for what I need.

Does Shape Painter not support angle actions, or am I missing something?

I think if im correct? Id have to see angles but if your shape painter makes a shape it wont account for angle actions?

If you tell shape painter to draw a line from x1y1 to x2y2 rotating it wont change where the line is drawn

Youll have to add angle stuff in x=1 + some angle stuff y=same etc

I think your rotating the object but not the shape drawn (you can test by changing size of the box to something really small and something really big to see difference)

I could be wrong in the future post your events for better more specific help

It should work - are you doing it after the shape is drawn?

It works, but you need to check “Draw the shapes relative to the object position on the scene.”
Previously left it unchecked — my mistake.

Although, the position becomes a bit weird.

*Nevermind, also solved the position issue.
