Purpose

SoRotateCylindricalDragger is a simple dragger that rotates about the y-axis of its local space. The feel of the rotation is akin to spinning a cylinder around its axis of rotation. The local space is determined by its position in the scene graph. Transformation nodes placed before it will affect both the dragger and the direction of motion.

This node has a Rotation field that always reflects its orientation in local space. If you set the field, the dragger will rotate accordingly. You can also connect fields of other nodes or engines from this node to make them follow the dragger’s orientation.
