How can I Change direction in Shapes? [SOLVED]

When using one of the shapes, e.g. Circle, I can have two heads on two different circles in same step, one on a large circle other on a small circle for example, but what I would like to do is have one head going 'Clockwise' and the other going 'Anti-Clockwise' Is this possible and if so how?
In other words how can I change the direction of just one Head?

Thanks in advance.
Goochie.

Try the FlipY function.

Any of the two flip functions will reverse the movement and I normally uses flipY

what does the flip do to your fixture

It changes location of beams, say from front of stage to back, or from floor to ceiling. Hope you understand?
All I want to do is change the direction of travel from Anti clockwise to Clockwise.
I have even tried to rotate shape but that doesnt work.

Rotation makes a delayed movements.

I will have a closer look on what they are doing when I uses flip.
