ROT(nged)

💅 ROT(nged) — bestie edition

okay so real quick: this is rot from the BRL-CAD User Commands manual, section nged, and it's literally the glow-up button for your viewport. let's get into it 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

rot — rotates the view or an object by xyz degrees. that's it, that's the whole vibe 🦋

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

rot {x y z}

three little numbers, one big slay. 🫶

---

💫 DESCRIPTION 💫

so rot rotates the view or an object by xyz degrees. but here's the tea: exactly what gets rotated and how it gets rotated depends on MGED's current state and on the state of the display manager. it's giving "it depends" energy, ngl 😭

want something similar? peep arot, it does a comparable thing. iykyk 💅

🔥 EXAMPLES 🔥

the two examples below show rot doing its thing — rotating the view or object by a specified number of degrees about the x, y, or z axis. iconic behavior, honestly.

⭐ Example 1

rotate the view or object a specified number of degrees about the z axis.

mged>rot 0 0 45

rotates the view or object 45° about the z axis. periodt. 💅

⭐ Example 2

rotate the view or object a specified number of degrees about the y and x axes.

mged>rot 45 45 0

rotates the view or object 45° about the y axis, then rotates 45° about the x axis. two rotations, one command, main character energy 👑
