Example code for the id XMSI_ROT_MODE in Omspin

Note that this is not the actual code from the Omspin file.

This code is just an example to show you how to add a similar control to your own description.

Resource File Code (Omspin.res)


LONG  XMSI_ROT_MODE

    CYCLE 
    {         XMSI_ROT_MODE_ABSOLUTE;

        XMSI_ROT_MODE_FACE_CAMERA; 
        XMSI_ROT_MODE_FACE_OBJECT; 
    }
}
