# Matrix.CreateRotate Method (Single, PointF)
 
Returns the affine [Matrix](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/T_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Transforms_Matrix.htm.md) of the rotation around the specified point transform.
 
**Namespace:** [Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Transforms](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/N_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Transforms.htm.md)
 **Assembly:** Aurigma.GraphicsMill (in Aurigma.GraphicsMill.dll)
 
## Syntax
  
```csharp
public static Matrix CreateRotate(float angle,PointF point
)
```
 
### Parameters
 
 - angle
     - Type: System.Single
The angle of the rotation (in degrees).

 - point
     - Type: System.Drawing.PointF
The center of the rotation.
 
### Return Value
A [Matrix](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/T_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Transforms_Matrix.htm.md) of the rotation transform.
 
## Remarks
  
The clockwise rotation is applied. Use negative angle value to rotate counter-clockwise.
