ROTATE(1)                TIPSY COMMANDS                  ROTATE(1)



NAME
     rotate - rotate the viewing angle

SYNOPSIS
     rotate direction degrees

DESCRIPTION
     rotate is a command to  rotate  the  viewing  angle  degrees
     degress  in  the  direction direction. degrees may be either
     positive or negative.  To view the particles  from  the  new
     direction  the rotate command must be followed by either the
     viewall, viewarray, viewgas, viewmag, viewpot,  viewrad,  or
     viewstar  commands.  The clearrot command resets the viewing
     angle to be looking down the z-axis.   The  angleup  command
     can  also  be used to rotate the simulation depending on the
     system's angular momentum.

OPTIONS
  Direction
     The possible choices for direction are:

          left
             Rotate  the  viewing  angle  to  the  left   degrees
             degrees.  This option may be abbreviated l

          right
             Rotate  the  viewing  angle  to  the  right  degrees
             degrees.  This option may be abbreviated r

          up Rotate the viewing angle up degrees  degrees.   This
             option may be abbreviated u

          down
             Rotate the viewing angle down degrees degrees.  This
             option may be abbreviated d

          clockwise
             Rotate the viewing angle clockwise degrees  degrees.
             This option may be abbreviated c
