BUILT-IN SYMBOL

Rotate[g,θ]

represents 2D graphics primitives or any other objects g rotated counterclockwise by θ radians about the center of their bounding box.

Rotate[g,θ,{x,y}]

rotates about the point {x,y}.

Rotate[g,{u,v}]

rotates around the origin, transforming the 2D or 3D vector u to v.

Rotate[g,θ,w]

rotates 3D graphics primitives by θ radians around the 3D vector w anchored at the origin.

Rotate[g,θ,w,p]

rotates around the 3D vector w anchored at p.

Rotate[g,θ,{u,v}]

rotates by angle θ in the plane spanned by 3D vectors u and v.

Properties & Relations  (1)

When possible, Normal will transform the coordinates explicitly:

Possible Issues  (4)

By default, Rotate uses the center of the bounding box as the center of rotation:

Explicitly specify a center of rotation:

Transforming an object may move it out of view:

Adjust the PlotRange to display the transformed object:

The center of the baseline of rotated text aligns with the baseline of the surrounding text:

For a different alignment, specify an explicit center of rotation:

Since text bounding boxes are always rectilinear, successive rotations can introduce extra space:
