Image rotation
==============
XaoS has support for rotation of the image to any angle. By default, changing
the angle requires recalculation of the whole screen, but when **fast rotation
mode** is enabled, the angle can be changed smoothly. In this mode XaoS
calculates a larger non-rotated image and rotates it when needed, so it
increases memory requirements and slows XaoS down; hence, it should be disabled
when rotation is not being used.
The user interface provides two rotation modes--**rotate by mouse** which
allows the angle to be changed by dragging with the first mouse button
depressed, and **continuous rotation mode**, where the image is rotated
clockwise continuously, and the arrow keys can be used to change the rotiation
speed.
**Syntax**:(fastrotate bool)
This function is used to enable and disable fast rotation mode.
**Available as**: command line option, command
Automatic rotation
------------------
**Syntax**:(autorotate bool)
Use this function to enable continuous rotation. In the scripting language you
can also use :ref:`morphangle <morphangle>` to get an outwardly similar but
more controllable effect.
**Syntax**:(rotationspeed float)
Specify the speed of continuous rotation, in degrees per second. Negative
values are allowed and rotate anticlockwise.
**Available as**: menu item, command line option, command
