[SetRot3D Very basic help needed]

Thanks again Michael, I've had an 18 hr day and I'm going cross-eyed.

 

I'll have a look in the next couple of days.

 

I definitely want it to rotate around the center of the object too.

 

It might be a bit too complex for me this early in my Vectorworks journey.

 

Kind regards,

 

Al

Thanks so much for the super quick reply Michael!

 

I did get SetRot3D and Set3DRot mixed up.

 

You assumed correctly, that I want to be able to rotate the selected object 90º from it's current orientation.

 

Is it a complex one to write using the Set3DRot?

 

Are there any simple examples of this, without doing extrusions etc? I got lost on the example at http://developer.vectorworks.net/index.php/VS:SetRot3D

 

Thanks very much for your time

[SetRot3D Very basic help needed]

Hi all,

 

I'm a newbie to Vectorworks and Vectorscript, just started using it 5 days ago & I'm hooked.

 

I'm trying to add a simple option with a script and then assign a keyboard shortcut to rotate the selected object 90 degrees around an axis.

 

I know how to add the script to a menu and assign a keyboard shortcut.

I used one of the scripts from here called Move to Origin, and it works a treat.

 

What I need help with is getting the script correct.

 

This is what I have and it does not work.

I'm trying to rotate the selected object 90 degrees around the X axis.

 

 

 

PROCEDURE Rotate90onX;

VAR hnd : HANDLE;

BEGIN

SetRot3D(hnd,90,0,0,0,0,0);

END;

RUN(Rotate90onX);

 

 

 

 

Any help or advice would be much appreciated.

 

Thanks

 

Al

Thanks so much for this!!!

 

I'm new to Vectorworks and this has been invaluable.
