Making a sprite rotate but squish a X or Y value to force perspective

Few years ago this was posted:

I had problems making it work. Can anyone show me how to rotate a sprite but squish the x or y. Think their should be a new method for Construct 3 as with one of the last updates how you can deform a sprite has changed.

Example if I wanted to make a whindmill or clock look like its at a 45 degree angle (isometric) and still use the rotate behavior

By nature, an isometric viewing angle simulates 3d space. It won't look right with simply rotating sprites on a 2d plane, no matter how you squish or stretch it.

You'll need to prepare sprite/animations with different facings ahead of time.
