Small Note Regarding VDP2 Rotating Scroll

For some reason, I keep thinking that the VDP2 only rotates on 2 axises [axi?] at a time: XY, XZ, or YZ. But, I've looked over the VDP2 reference and the section on the rotating scroll in the SGL Tutorial document, and I can't find any mention of this. Is this true, or did my mind just make it up? ...I'm certain I heard this somewhere.

I guess no one's heard anything like this, then...

what are you doing? writing a small demo?

No, trying to create my own version of the rotating scroll plane for a PC game. I've found examples of bitmap rotation and Mode7 demos but I like how the Saturn is able to build an entire scene from 3D and the rotating scroll.
