Can I rotate a Counter Object?

[Xadr]

I am trying to rotate the top counter so the person sitting on that side can see it not upside-down. Is there anyway to do this? Here is the MFA file if anyone would like to take a look

It's possible yet it takes a bit of trial and error.

Not sure how big your counter needs to count up to? So I made a quick fix example up to 99. I worked off the idea that you can customise your counter graphics, therefore you can change the graphics to be flipped and mirrored.

If you wanted your rotated counter to count further, more coding along similar lines would be needed.

That is great! Just what i needed, Only I was going to make it so you could add and subtract the value, but I can do that myself. Thank you very much

Ive actually now run into another problem with that! The flipped counter (Player2's) Doesnt subtract 10's when you reach zero going down, any idea on how to get around that?

Oh I see. Well try this. Sorry for recolouring the counters, I made it easier to remember which was which. Hope it's just what you need

Oh that works nicely. Keeping this all in mind for when i may need it later. Thank you for the help its much appreciated. And this is just going to be a fun little app to keep track of your life, for card games and such.

Nothing super big, but with all the counters and such I could turn it into a fun game! Ill see where i can go with it
