When I create a Draggable object of type "rotation", it starts at 0 degrees rotation. Is there a way to set this to another value via JavaScript code?

 

Use case: I've got a dial that selects a particular setting that gets saved. When the user comes back to the screen I want the dial to be positioned to the previous setting.

 

Thanks!

Sure:

//create Draggable
Draggable.create("#yourID", {type:"rotation"});

//get the Draggable instance (you could also combine this with the line above like var yourDraggable = Draggable.create(...)[0]
var yourDraggable = Draggable.get("#yourID");

//set the rotation to whatever you want.
TweenLite.set("#yourID", {rotation:45});

//tell the Draggable to calibrate/synchronize/read the current value
yourDraggable.update();
