Simple Rotating Shape Approach Recommendation

I am looking for the recommended approach to create a simple rotating shape. The ultimate goal is to create a rotating light to signify an 'in test' state. I have created a rotating visual shape via PF with a 'Change Visual' and 'Delay' loop, but this seems inefficient (processor costly) due to the delay. I looked at creating an animation for the shape, but I don't see how to add keyframes without adding a component. Recommendation? Thanks - Stan

There is not another approach then to add an object when you want to use the animation creator!!

you can exchange frames in On Draw or Pre Draw trigger. Those triggers are evaluated depending on refresh rate of your view. But you will set standard correct frames additionally in events for example when objects leave or enter your processor.
