QuickTime Text Track Rotation

Dear AppleScripters,

Hello.  I'm trying to use AppleScript to manipulate a text track over QuickTime.  If you open a movie (with a text track) with QuickTime Pro, its Visual Settings lets you rotate a track.  But the Dictionary for QuickTime states nothing about track rotation under track.  Does that simply mean AppleScript won't let you rotate a track?

In the meantime, it doesn't look like text frame's drop shadow offset and drop shadown tranparency works.

tell application "QuickTime Player"
set keyed of text frame of track 3 of document 1 to true
set drop shadow of text frame of track 3 of document 1 to true
set drop shadow offset of text frame of track 3 of document 1 to {20, 50}
set drop shadow transparency of text frame of track 3 of document 1 to 100


set foreground color of text frame of track 3 of document 1 to {65535, 150, 250}
set background color of text frame of track 3 of document 1 to {0, 65535, 65535}
set default font size of text frame of track 3 of document 1 to 50
end tell

Or am I doing anything wrong?  Thank you for your advice.

Jim
