Is it possible to have a static revolving sprite ?

I assumed that setting a sprite to static but also setting an angular velocity would produce a static revolving sprite, but it appears that if a sprite is static the angular velocity is ignored.

A static sprite can rotate. Below is an example of a static sprite with an angle of 30. But to revolving, you need to use a timer, not a block for setting the angular velocity

Sorry, I do not understand what you mean?

If I set a sprite to be static then it doesn’t matter where I set the angular velocity, it does not revolve.

Can you explain further or show the code ?
