DESCRIPTION¶

This node defines a 3D rotation about an arbitrary axis through the origin. The rotation is accumulated into the current transformation, which is applied to subsequent shapes. The rotation field provides a variety of methods for specifying the rotation.

FIELDS¶

SoSFRotation rotation
Rotation specification.

METHODS¶

SoRotation()
Creates a rotation node with default settings.

static SoType getClassTypeId()
Returns type identifier for this class.

ACTION BEHAVIOR¶

SoGLRenderAction, SoCallbackAction, SoGetBoundingBoxAction, SoRayPickAction
Accumulates rotation transformation into the current transformation.
SoGetMatrixAction
Returns the matrix corresponding to the rotation.

FILE FORMAT/DEFAULTS¶

Rotation {


rotation	0 0 1  0


}
