Routine Name:
rotcoord
Description:
Rotates coordinates of elements in 3-d space.
Usage:
| -x
|
| -y
|
rotcoord element angle [ | [-z]
| ]
| -a(xis) x y z |
[-c(enter) x y z]
element
[ | -t(ranslatekids) | ]
| -f(ixkids)
|
path of element to be rotated
angle
angle (in degrees) for rotation
-x
use x axis as axis relative to which to
rotate element
-y
use y axis as axis relative to which to
rotate element
-z
use z axis as axis relative to which to
rotate element (this is the default)
-a(xis) x y z
use vector specified by x, y, z coordinates
as axis relative to which to rotate element
-c(enter) x y z
offset center of rotation (default: 0,0,0)
-t(ranslatekids)
have children of selected element translated
parallel to the parent rather than rotated
(default is to rotate)
-f(ixkids) prevent children of selected elements
from being moved
Example:
rotcoord /cell/primary_dendrite 30
Notes:
By default, all the children of the selected element are
rotated as well.
