Usage
Click the rotate button to activate it. By holding the middle mouse button down while moving the mouse, the currently active part of the tree will be rotated until you press the left mouse button (right mouse button will cancel the last transformation). If the keyboard toggle button is active, you must enter numerical values to perform the rotation. You will then see the following prompt in the status area:
x?
In response to this prompt, type the number of degrees that you want the currently active part of the tree to be rotated around the x axis. If you do not want to rotate in that direction, press <Enter> and the next prompt will appear. Do the same for the y and z axes.
Comments
When no axis is active, transformations are relative to the current window.
When global or local axis is active, transformations are relative to the corresponding axis:
to rotate around the y and z axis, activate cam1
to rotate around the x and y axis, activate cam2
to rotate around the z and x axis, activate cam3
If you want to rotate only around one axis with the mouse, use the rotate button in conjunction with the xy toggle button.
The rotation of objects may also be changed by entering numerical values in the rot- x, y, and z input boxes in the status area.
