i like that; i was thinking this:
transform.orientation[0,random(1),0]
thanks again

thank you for that, however, I'm trying to change the y value of the orientation...
I don't know how to specify in the expression how to keep the x and z value of the orientation the same while randomizing the y value

I have a graphic on a 3D layer and all I want to do is randomly rotate the Y axis of its orientation over time so it looks like its spinning in 3D space. Any help and/or insight to this would be appreciated. I expect this is very simple, but not for me..thanks
