    Hello,

    I am rather new to C4D and working with 8.5 at the moment. I got a small problem I can’t grip.
    I used a cylinder, turned it into a polygon object and made some changes. Now I want to rotate it around its center axis and animate it which works OK but as soon as I rotate it by 10 degrees on another axis and animate the center axis for rotation the object tumbles.
    I cant’t find the problem on this although I am pretty sure its a one-click thing. Any hints??

    I don’t know about a “one-click” solution, but let’s say you want a spinning globe. What I’d do is animate the untilted sphere (or other object) on its y axis, then place that into a null. You can then rotate or tilt the null object. Your globe (or Cylinder should now roate properly.
