      i think only with meshes can one emulate 3d rotations.

      It is not 3d rotation. For example i have a man on stage whose face looks to x+ , but i want him to look x-. Sorry for bad english:D hope you understand me :)

      if I understand your question
      try this way:

      Sprite:setScaleX(-1)

      sprite is flipped on x.

      open "Texture Pack" Gideros example
      on file animatedsprite.lua
      in function AnimatedSprite:init()
      add

      self:setScaleX(-1)
      self:setPosition(100,100)


      it works on movieclips also.

      hope it helps.

      Take a look at @144mb's tiled v2. example that uses TNT pad also. It has the same thing as you wanted. Btw which one are you attending @mertocan ?

      @mertocan,

      Here's an example of a little game I built in Gideros to help with my daughter's reading. It uses tweening of setScaleX() amongst other things to give a vertical axis flip of an animation. In the game the main character walks left and right based on device tilt. Is this the sort of thing you're looking for?


      Here's the pertinent code:
      function PrincessMilly:onEnterFrame()
	local game=PrincessMillyGame.current
 
	if self.walking~=0 then
		self:walk(self.walking)
	else
		local ax, ay, az=game.accelerometer:getAcceleration()
		if ay>PrincessMilly.WALK_HYSTERESIS then 
			self:walk(-PrincessMilly.WALK_SPEED)
		end	
		if ay<-PrincessMilly.WALK_HYSTERESIS then 
			self:walk(PrincessMilly.WALK_SPEED)
		end	
	end
 
	game.camera:lookAt(self)
end
 
local function sign(x)
  return (x<0 and -1) or 1
end
 
function PrincessMilly:walk(speed)
	local x=self:getX()+speed
	self:setX(x)
 
	local angle=math.sin(x/PrincessMilly.JOSTLE_SPEED)*PrincessMilly.JOSTLE_AMOUNT
	self:setRotation(angle)
 
	if sign(speed)~=sign(self.lastWalk) then
		GTween.new(self, 0.5, {scaleX=sign(speed)})
	end
	self.lastWalk=speed
end
 
function PrincessMilly:walkLeft()
	self.walking=-PrincessMilly.WALK_SPEED
end
 
function PrincessMilly:walkRight()
	self.walking=PrincessMilly.WALK_SPEED
end
      Hope that helps.

      best regards
