From frame 0 to frame 180 rotate by 360 degrees horizontally

To actually render the animation, click on the “Run” button. A new movie window opens, and new frames are added as they were rendered. For a quick preview of the movie, adjust the frame rate (>Image>Stacks>Animation>Animation Options…, or simply right-click the play button next to the time slider) and start playback by clicking on the play button.
