rotating a shutter

This is probably laughable to the GDL gurus around here, but I want to make the standard archicad louvered Shutter rotate, in order to create a shutter awning, so popular in these parts (gulf coast). Anybody have any ideas or and in addition to, I am interested in an Italian shutter, with bottom portions that tilt out.

You then need to add the line to the library part window.
That is the easiest way if all you are looking for is a quick representation.
