3D Rotating Item in shop UI

Hello everyone, I want to make a rotating item UI for my dictionary. Basically, I have 40 items, and I want them to rotate in their respective slots. I know there have been similar topics https://devforum.roblox.com/t/how-do-people-make-3d-models-rotating-in-ui/, but is it possible to do it for more than one item? Thanks for the help!

I think I know what you mean, RennDevv explains it quite well: How to make rotating object in ViewportFrame | Roblox Studio 2022 - YouTube

First of all, parent ur items to a ViewportFrame

Use RunService.RenderStepped and inside the callback function, update the CFrame property of the object, for eg smth like this shud work.

Item.CFrame = Item.CFrame * CFrame.Angles(0, math.rad(5), 0) * deltaTime

Where Item is a reference to ur BasePart item and the rotational speed is determined by the math.rad(5), which means the object will rotate 5 degrees per frame. And finally the deltaTime is the parameter provided by the RenderStepped function, which we multiply for smooth movement.

FYI :- deltaTime is the seconds it took to go to the current frame from the previous frame. And of you wanna change the speed of the rotation, jus increase/decrease the number inside the math.rad() function.

I made the following script:

for count = 1, length(imageID) do

	local ImageButton = Instance.new("ViewportFrame")
	ImageButton.Parent = frame
	ImageButton.Name = "Slot"..count
	--ImageButton.Image = imageIDTable[count]
	ImageButton.LayoutOrder = count
	local clone = game.ReplicatedStorage[CraftableList[count]]:Clone()
	
	
	clone.Parent = ImageButton

It sort of works, but it’s all very off-center. Is there a way I could make it more centered?

RunService.RenderStepped:Connect(function(dt)
		self.ShopBack.ScrollingFrame.ViewportFrame.Apple.CFrame = self.ShopBack.ScrollingFrame.ViewportFrame.Apple.CFrame * CFrame.Angles(0, math.rad(5), 0) * dt
	end)
