Hi there, i am trying to rotate a graphic that is following a guide path,

this.leaf.\_rotation +=2;

this successfully rotates the object but it stops moving along the path,  
if i dont put this code in then it moves along the path fine,

any ideas how to get them both to work at the same time?

thanks!
