Low-frequency oscillations are unstable in a wide range of stellar models and have been detected in a number of B-type stars. For such modes, even a moderate rotation significantly affects amplitude distribution over stellar surface and hence their visibility conditions. Adopting the traditional approximation, we study effects of rotation on relative amplitudes in photometric passbands and in radial velocity. We present numerical results for unstable modes in a selected stellar model of a 6 M๏ main sequence star. The goal is to show how observable amplitudes, which are tools for mode identification, depend on the rotation rate and on the aspect angle.
