Rotate
Rotates elements to an absolute rotation or by a relative amount.
Rotate( [InputObjs], [X], [Y], [Z], [Delta], [RefMode], [Center], [AxesFilter], [Reference], [SplitLocalComponents], [PropTagOnly], [Pivot], [PivotX], [PivotY], [PivotZ], [ConstructionMode], [SlideComponents] ); |
| Parameter | Type | Description | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| InputObjs | String | List of objects or
components to rotate.
Default Value: Selected elements |
||||||
| X | Double | X rotation in degrees
Default Value: 0.0 |
||||||
| Y | Double | Y rotation
Default Value: 0.0 |
||||||
| Z | Double | Z rotation
Default Value: 0.0 |
||||||
| Delta | siDeltaMode | Specifies whether to rotate the object a relative or absolute
amount
Default Value: siRelative |
||||||
| RefMode | siRefMode | The reference mode to rotate within
Default Value: siLocal |
||||||
| Center | siCenterMode | Specifies whether to rotate the object or its center. Note: If an object does not have a moveable center, then rotating its center rotates the object. Default Value: siObj |
||||||
| AxesFilter | siAxesFilter | Determines which of the x,y,z arguments are valid (used with
Absolute mode only).
Default Value: siXYZ |
||||||
| Reference | String | In By Reference mode, the rotation is relative to the center of
this object
Default Value: ""
|
||||||
| SplitLocalComponents | Boolean | Specifies whether to rotate all components independently in
Local mode
Default Value: False |
||||||
| PropTagOnly | Boolean | Specifies whether to restrict proportional to tagged components
only
Default Value: False |
||||||
| Pivot | Boolean | If true the specified global pivot point is used for rotation
Default Value: False |
||||||
| PivotX | Double | X position of the pivot point
Default Value: 0.0 |
||||||
| PivotY | Double | Y position of the pivot point
Default Value: 0.0 |
||||||
| PivotZ | Double | Z position of the pivot point
Default Value: 0.0 |
||||||
| ConstructionMode | siConstructionMode | In which construction mode will the deformation be applied.
This only applies when rotating geometry components.
Default Value: Use the current construction mode |
||||||
| SlideComponents | Boolean | Constrain components to surface during translation. Works like
shrink wrap for points/polygons while edges are constrained along
adjacent polygon edges. Currently only supported for mesh objects.
Default Value: False |
