✨ EYE_PT ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the nged page for eye_pt — literally the cutest little camera-mover in BRL-CAD 💖

🌸 NAME 🌸

eye_pt — moves the eye point to whatever x, y, and z coordinates you hand it. and if you give it no arguments at all? it just tells you where the eye point is currently chilling. no cap.

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

eye_pt
eye_pt mx my mz
eye_pt "mx my mz"

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

so here's the tea: eye_pt is an alias for the eye command. it positions the view's "eye" point (that's the camera location, iykyk) at the model coordinates you specify. main character energy fr fr 🎥✨

the command supports three modes of operation, and honestly, pick your vibe:

  • no arguments — it returns the current model coordinates of the eye point. it's giving "where am i" 🧚
  • three numerical arguments (mx my mz) — the eye point gets translated to those exact coordinates. precise, iconic, slay.
  • one single string with three space-separated numbers ("mx my mz") — it parses that string and moves the eye point to those coordinates. versatile queen 👑

🔥 EXAMPLES 🔥

Example 1. Query the current eye location

mged> eye_pt

returns the current X, Y, and Z model coordinates of the eye point. lowkey useful ngl 🫶

Example 2. Move the eye to a specific coordinate

mged> eye_pt 100 0 0

positions the camera eye point precisely at the model's (100, 0, 0) coordinates. obsessed. 💖
