PITCH

Returns the negative value of the second angle associated with a Body 321 rotation sequence from one coordinate system object to another. This angle is referred to as the pitch angle, and is used in association with the yaw (1st rotation) and roll (3rd rotation) angles.

Note:  
Opposite from convention, this function calculates the negative of the second Body 321 angle.

Arguments

 
Object
Coordinate system object whose rotation is being measured.
Reference Frame
Coordinate system object with respect to which the rotation is being measured.
