I create a curved travelling rotation in SignText/SignMaker? (Did this
one in Paint) Same idea with TITLE/QUOTE... only the arcing

to place it close to where the forearm would go... Thats how my little
brain made sense of the direction of rotation. If the forearm attaches
to the handshape like this... then I could SEE the rotation. It made
sense to me. ::grin::</font>

Hi Cherie -<br>
No ...nothing is moving down or side with the Rotation Arrows you <br>
chose...if you want to move down, then that is a different movement arrow...<br>
<br>
To explain...The Rotation Arrows do not show any traveling. They mean <br>
"in one place", so even though they may look like they travel,
they do <br>
not. The spoke or line through the arrow means your forearm...the
<br>
forearm stays in one place while the rotation occurs around it, like
an <br>
axis...the forearm is the axis or center of the rotation...<br>
<br>
Meanwhile, the beginning position, no matter whether it travels or stays
<br>
in one place, must be at the beginning of the arrow, and the ending
<br>
position must be at the end of the arrow...that is the logic behind <br>
beginning and ending positions...both positions do not have to be <br>
written as you know, but if you want them to actually move down <br>
diagonally then I can see why you wrote both positions...<br>
<br>
We can discuss other ways to write QUOTE too...<br>
