Hi there,
I'm trying to rotate some simple squares and grouped polygon

I can't seem to get it to work. The examples in the documentation
don't seem to work or make logical sense to me either.
Has anyone done this? It seems like it should be a simple thing to

because I missed it, or pissed that in every other case (that I'm aware
of) one must specify "image", "button", "field" etc.
Thank you.
