Rotate starts at speed 90, if you wanna see some major spin set the speed to like 900
Play with the speed. It gives A LOT of control over how fast it spins.. Try setting number higher.

hrmm... they work together, I don't think the 'actor' can spin without the image spinning..
Is it just a round rock? You sure it's not spinning?
Try deleting the actor instance & trying again... Never heard of that.

now i can make it spin with the image,only when giving the rock density 1,fixed rotation,and movable,but with the gravity set to 0.but when i increase gravity,the rock will fall down.
when i set rock density to 0,it juz wont spin with image..

ahh so you have gravity on... that's the difference maker.
I would try applying acceleration upwards. Play with the numbers, but that's the only way you'll be able to keep it from falling.

Try constraining it's y attribute (position). That should also counteract gravity
