How much foot rotation is required for the AP oblique medial rotation projection of the foot?

Bontrager Ch 6 Self Test Questions.

What could happen if the foot is over rotated when doing an AP medial oblique?

If the foot is over rotated the base of the 5th metatarsal will be superimposed by the tubercle of the 4th metatarsal. If the foot is under rotated the bases of the 4th and 5th metatarsals will overlap; the image may have a closer resemblance to the DP projection.
