🎀 SoComposeRotationFromTo(3) — from the Coin manual, section 3 💅

okay bestie sit DOWN because we're reading a manpage together and this one is genuinely cute. She lives in the Coin manual, section 3, and she's an engine whose whole personality is turning a from vector into a to vector. No cap. 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

SoComposeRotationFromTo — the class that composes rotations based on from and to vectors. That's the whole job description, periodt. 💖

💅 Detailed Description 💅

SoComposeRotationFromTo is the class used to compose rotations based on from and to vectors. Literally the same energy as the NAME section, she's consistent like that. ✨

🔥 Member Function Documentation 🔥

SoType SoComposeRotationFromTo::getClassTypeId (void ) [static]

This static method returns the SoType object associated with objects of this class. 🎀

SoType SoComposeRotationFromTo::getTypeId (void ) const [virtual]

Returns the type identification of an object derived from a class inheriting SoBase. This is used for runtime type checking and "downward" casting.

Implements SoBase.

const SoFieldData ** SoComposeRotationFromTo::getInputDataPtr (void ) [static], [protected]

Returns the SoFieldData class which holds information about inputs in this engine. 📥

const SoEngineOutputData ** SoComposeRotationFromTo::getOutputDataPtr (void ) [static], [protected]

Returns the SoEngineOutputData class which holds information about the outputs in this engine. 📤

const SoFieldData * SoComposeRotationFromTo::getFieldData (void ) const [virtual]

Returns the SoFieldData class which holds information about inputs in this engine.

Reimplemented from SoFieldContainer.

const SoEngineOutputData * SoComposeRotationFromTo::getOutputData (void ) const [virtual]

Returns the SoEngineOutputData class which holds information about the outputs in this engine.

Implements SoEngine.

void * SoComposeRotationFromTo::createInstance (void ) [static]

Creates a new instance of the class type corresponding to the SoType object. ✨

🌈 Member Data Documentation 🌈

SoMFVec3f SoComposeRotationFromTo::from

Set of input vectors to rotate from. 🫶

SoMFVec3f SoComposeRotationFromTo::to

Set of input vectors to rotate to. 🫶

SoEngineOutput SoComposeRotationFromTo::rotation

(SoMFRotation) — set of output rotations, where each element is the rotation you need to apply to the from vector (of the same index) to make it point in the to direction. that's the tea, that's the whole magic trick. 🔥

okay that's the whole page bestie, you ate it, go forth and compose rotations responsibly. 💖
