Tom,
For reference, ZenGuitar3D.java has an example of using the Rotate
transformation, binding to values changing in a Timeline:

Hi Tom,
this seems to be the case.
Node's rotate property only accepts x and y coordinates, but not
pivotX and pivotY for the rotation center. Interestingly
RotateTransition uses the rotate property (in
Transition#interpolate()) instead of a Rotate transformation.
If you want to specify pivot coordinates, you have to use the Rotate
transformation (or the Scale transformation). I transform Rotate and
Scale transformation with Timeline; it also provides a stop() method
which I needed for a geographical information system.

Just to check that I'm seeing this right:
- The rotate property of a node can only rotate around the node's center.
- The RotateTransition simply manipulates a node's rotate property.
So as soon as you have to rotate around any other point except the center,
these two classes cannot be used.
The alternative is:
- Use a Rotate transformation, which allows specifying the rotation center.
- Animate that using a Timeline, because that is the easiest way to animatie
a transformation.
