xclip place then rotate

[parkerfeldman]

hello i wrote a routine to xclip a file at 40' increments and then it will either place the xclips below the original xref or let you place each xclip individually that part worked fine. now i am trying to add a rotate into it. i would like it to let me place the xclip and then rotate it. here is my code which is not working. i tried using a vla-put to change the rotation property the only problem with that is i need it to rotate around my new point, not the xrefs insertion point.
