How to set the orientation of a given mosaic object?

 Hi cessej,

the appropriate key for the orientation of your mosaic-object is "tileArray";

unfortunately, mosaic_id~>tileArray cannot be modified by a skill-command.

There's an API-function dbSetTileArray that could be used for self
defined  enhancements.

I assume the only way to modify the orientation by skill is, to gather all
required informations from the existing mosaic, delete the mosaic and
create a new mosaic applying the modified parameters.

If you have the mosaic id, then you can do this:

;Store the current xy of the mosaic (assuming mo contains the mosaic ID)
xy = mo~>xy
dbMoveFig(mo geGetEditCellView() list(0:0 "R90"))
mo~>xy = xy

Thanks for the help. I think this solution really help at some point. Is it applicable when edit-in-place or do I still need to transform the bbox?

I think it should still work for edit-in-place. We are simply applying a tranform that contains a rotation. However, since we cannot specify the reference point for the rotation, we just capture the xy and reset it afterwards. I haven't tested it, but I think this will be unaffected in eip.
