Rotation

To produce a Rotation in the Main Menu select Operations - > Transformation - > Rotation

This operation rotates the initial shape. To produce a Rotation you need to define an Object  to be rotated, an Axis of rotation and an Angle of rotation.

Reverse checkbox allows to specify the direction of rotation.

Create a copy checkbox allows to keep the initial object, otherwise it will be removed.

The Result will be any  GEOM_Object.

Firstly you can define an Object  to be rotated, an Axis of rotation and an Angle of rotation.

TUI Command: geompy.MakeRotation(Shape, Axis, Angle)

Arguments: 1 shape + 1 vector for direction of rotation + 1 angle.

Secondly you can define an Object and three points. Rotation axis will pass through the first point and will be orthogonal to a plane, defined by the three points. Rotation angle in this case is an angle between two vectors, directed from the first point to the second and to the third points correspondingly.

TUI Command: geompy.MakeRotationThreePoints(Shape, CentralPoint, Point1, Point2)

Arguments: 1 shape + 3 points.

Example:

Our TUI Scripts provide you with useful examples of the use of Transformation Operations.
