# centerOfRotation attribute

The centerOfRotation attribute specifies the centre of rotation or offset about which an object will revolve at runtime. The center of rotation can be outside of the object, making the object appear to move in an arc.

All the graphic drawing object elements (except panel and image) contain this attribute, within the animateRotation element, nested within the animations element.
