📦 Installation

Recommended

Drag-and-drop the downloaded .zip file straight into any Blender window – done.

Classic steps

Edit → Preferences → Add-ons → Install… → pick the .zip → Enable “Animax Rotator”.

🎯 What it does

Turns any selected faces into an animatable rotation pivot.

One click creates the hinge, handle and driver; rotate interactively or key-frame the angle.

🚀 How to use

Select faces

Edit mode → select at least one face.

Launch

Press Alt + ``  (grave accent) or hit “Edge Selection Modal” in the side-panel (N → “Rot”).

Pick axis & handle

Click an edge = rotation axis

Click a vertex / second edge = handle point

Rotate

Drag the colored ring

Click any tick-mark for snap angles

Hold Shift for slow, precise moves

Finish

Enter = confirm, Esc = cancel.

Angle slider now appears in the “Rot” panel – key-frame it anytime.

💡 Tips

Ctrl + Z undoes the last rotation step.

Turn on “Animation Recording” in the panel before key-framing.

Avoid applying transforms or changing topology after recording – it breaks the cache.
