Note: you can record "rotation movies" about your structure-specific axes just remember to specify the Custom (From Spin Popover) option when you choose the File > Export Video > Rotation Movie command. Once your structure is spinning, you can manually rotate it without affecting the auto-rotation axis (i.e., your selected bond axis). Next, open the spin popover, choose the "Y" rotation preset and ensure that the Lock Rotation Axis to Screen checkbox is unset. Select the bond, then choose the new Make Bond Vertical command (as described below). You should now be able to manually rotate your structure whilst it continue to spin about your original lattice vector. Finally, click the Start Spinning button. Thirdly, uncheck the Lock Rotation Axis to Screen setting (important, as you want rotation relative to your structure). Secondly, open the Spin popover and click the Z preset. Firstly, choose the Transform > View Direction > Set View Direction command to orient your structure. Once your structure is spinning, you can manually rotate it (e.g., by clicking-and-dragging with the mouse) and still have the structure continue spinning about your chosen cell axis.
Click the Cell preset, then click the Start Spinning button. Next, open the Spin popover (e.g., by clicking and holding down the mouse over the toolbar Spin button).
