I am completely new to using Flash and AS 3.0, and I'm trying to do something very simple right now. I have imported a GIF file to the stage and library, and I want to be able to rotate it when the movie starts, using AS 3.0.

Is it possible to rotate a BitmapData object directly, or do I need to wrap it in a Bitmap or Sprite, or perhaps make a Graphics object in the library? And do I need to do anything special to be able to have access to library files, as long as I give them a descriptive name? And finally, do I need to link a class to the BitmapData or Graphics object in the library to rotate it when the movie starts, or does that need to be done in a Document class which I should create?
