ORI_ALL_AXES
Returns a body-fixed 313 Euler sequence describing an orientation in which the first axis of a coordinate system object is parallel to, and co-directed with, a line defined by the first two points in a plane, and its second axis is parallel to the plane.
Format
ORI_ALL_AXES (Plane Point Locations, Axes Names)
Arguments
Plane Point Locations | 3x3 matrix providing three non-colinear points describing a plane. The points are expressed in the global coordinate system. |
Axes Names | Character string indicating which two axes to orient. xy, yx, xz, zx, yz, and zy are the only possible values (character case is insignificant). Also, since each value defines a distinct orientation, xy is not the same as yx. |
Examples
In the following illustration, the ORI_ALL_AXES function returns a body-fixed 313 Euler sequence describing an orientation, as specified.
Function | ORI_ALL_AXES({{14,18,0},{10,14,0},{16,14,0}}, "xz") |
Result | 45, 90, 180 |
In the following illustration, the ORI_ALL_AXES function returns a body-fixed 313 Euler sequence describing an orientation, as specified:
Function | ORI_ALL_AXES({{14,18,0},{10,14,0},{16,14,0}}, zx) |
Result | 315, 90, 0 |
