📅 published 7.44.0, from nixpkgs unstable

okay bestie, this is dir2ae from the nged part of the BRL-CAD MGED Commands manual, and it's literally the glow-up your direction vector asked for. ✨💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

dir2ae — returns the azimuth and elevation (AE) using the provided direction vector. 🦋

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

dir2ae [-i] {dx dy dz}

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

So the whole vibe is: you feed dir2ae a direction vector, and it returns the azimuth and elevation (AE) using that provided direction vector as input. The vector is the {dx dy dz} situation. 🎀

There’s one flag, and she’s iconic:

  • -i — if you use this option, the command returns the inverse AE. periodt. 🔥

Also, go peek at the ae2dir and qvrot commands when you’re done — they’re in the same little command friend group. 👀💜

🎀 EXAMPLES 🎀

The example shows the use of the dir2ae command to get the AE. 🍓

⭐ Example 1 — find the AE using the provided direction vector

mged>dir2ae 0.707107 0.707107 0

Returns the AE using a direction vector of 0.707107 0.707107 0. ✨
