Visible Fields

Rotation Axis

name: rotationAxis, type: Vector3, default: 0 1 0

Sets the rotation axis to rotate around.

Rotation Angle

name: rotationAngle, type: Float, default: 360

Sets the rotation angle, which is divided by the Rotation Steps.

Rotation Steps

name: rotationSteps, type: Integer, default: 80

Sets the number of rotation steps the Rotation Angle is divided into.

Rotation Current Step

name: rotationCurrentStep, type: Integer, persistent: no

Shows the current rotation step. Cannot be larger than Rotation Steps.

Auto Adjust Clipping Planes

name: autoAdjustClippingPlanes, type: Bool, default: TRUE

If checked, the viewer’s clipping plane (near and far) are automatically adjusted while rotating the camera.

Rotate

name: rotate, type: Trigger

When pressed, the camera is rotated one step or if Auto Rotate is set, the entire Rotation Angle is used in steps.
