Hi all.

I’ve got a symbol on stage and a button.  
The button rotates the symbol CCW half a degree.

```auto
on(release){ mySymbol._rotation -= 0.5; }

```

I wanna add an on(\*\* press and hold\*\* ) action on button so that the symbol will be rotated continuously when the button is on hold…

Any HELP **PLZ**? I can’t make this work for over a week now.🔗
