Method Detail

setGraphicRotation

public void setGraphicRotation(AxisAngle3 rotation)

Sets the geometric rotation of this transform node. If the node is spatially constrained, some or all of the transformation may be ignored.

Parameters:

rotation - Value of the transformation. Never null.

getGraphicRotation

public AxisAngle3 getGraphicRotation(AxisAngle3 retVal)

Gets the geometric rotation of this transform node. If the node is spatially constrained, it will be reflected in the return value.

Parameters:

retVal - Return value object. The rotation. Never null.

Returns:

Reference to retVal. Never null.
