The <a href="qml-qtquick-rotationanimation.html#direction-prop">direction</a> property can be set to specify the direction in which the rotation should occur.</p> <p>In the following example we use <a href="qml-qtquick-rotationanimation.html">RotationAnimation</a> to animate the rotation between states via the shortest path:</p> <pre class="qml"> import QtQuick 2.0 Item { width: 300; height: 300 Rectangle { id: rect width: 150; height: 100; anchors.centerIn: parent color: "red" antialiasing: true states: State { name: "rotated" PropertyChanges { target: rect; rotation: 180 } } transitions: Transition { RotationAnimation { duration: 1000; direction: RotationAnimation.Counterclockwise } } } MouseArea { anchors.fill: parent; onClicked: rect.state = "rotated" } } </pre> <p>Notice the <a href="qml-qtquick-rotationanimation.html">RotationAnimation</a> did not need to set a <code>target</code> value. As a convenience, when used in a transition, <a href="qml-qtquick-rotationanimation.html">RotationAnimation</a> will rotate all properties named "rotation" or "angle". You can override this by providing your own properties via <a href="qml-qtquick-propertyanimation.html#properties-prop">properties</a> or <a href="qml-qtquick-propertyanimation.html#property-prop">property</a>.</p> <p>Also, note the <a href="qml-qtquick-rectangle.html">Rectangle</a> will be rotated around its default <a href="qml-qtquick-item.html#transformOrigin-prop">transformOrigin</a> (which is <code>Item.Center</code>). To use a different transform origin, set the origin in the <a href="qml-qtquick-propertychanges.html">PropertyChanges</a> object and apply the change at the start of the animation using <a href="qml-qtquick-propertyaction.html">PropertyAction</a>. See the <a href="qml-qtquick-propertyaction.html">PropertyAction</a> documentation for more details.</p> <p>Like any other animation type, a <a href="qml-qtquick-rotationanimation.html">RotationAnimation</a> can be applied in a number of ways, including transitions, behaviors and property value sources. The <a href="qtquick-statesanimations-animations.html">Animation and Transitions in Qt Quick</a> documentation shows a variety of methods for creating animations.</p> <p><b>See also </b><a href="qtquick-statesanimations-animations.html">Animation and Transitions in Qt Quick</a> and <a href="qtquick-animation-example.html">Qt Quick Examples - Animation</a>.</p> <!-- @@@RotationAnimation --> <h2>Property Documentation</h2> <!-- $$$direction --> <div class="qmlitem"><div class="qmlproto"> <div class="table"><table class="qmlname"> <tr valign="top" class="odd" id="direction-prop"> <td class="tblQmlPropNode"><p> <a name="direction-prop"></a><span class="name">direction</span> : <span class="type">enumeration</span></p></td></tr> </table></div> </div><div class="qmldoc"><p>This property holds the direction of the rotation.</p> <p>Possible values are:</p> <ul> <li><a href="qml-qtquick-rotationanimation.html">RotationAnimation</a>.Numerical (default) - Rotate by linearly interpolating between the two numbers.
