Argument(s)[edit]

Return Value(s)[edit]

No Return Values for this command.


Description[edit]

The "arot" command performs a rotation about the specified axis (x y z) using screen units (-2048 to +2048). The amount of rotation is determined by angle, which is in degrees. Exactly what is rotated and how it is rotated are dependent on MGED's state as well as the state of the display manager. For example, in normal viewing mode, this command simply rotates the view. However, in primitive edit mode, it rotates the shape being edited.

Example(s)[edit]

mged> arot 0 0 1 10
Rotate 10 degrees about z axis.
