Transformations can also be combined, either to create further moving objects as in the file below or to create more complicated motion, as in the example rotation file where two rotations are combined.
In the file to the right the original Claude from the last section has been hidden and the rotated Claude has been given a half turn about the vertical base vector and then reflected in the plane shown.

In the file to the left all but the rotated Claude have been deleted, and the rotated Claude has been translated by vector CD and then hidden. The new Claude both rotates and moves up and own.
