spinto

Dear All,
I am a beginner with Vizard. I want to spin an object 350 degrees using the spinTo command. For example: cube.spinto(0,0,1,350,10). However, it doesn't work for angles that are more than 180 degrees. Could anyone help me out?
Many Thanks...
Zafer

Hi Zafer,

The spinto function calculates the smallest rotation needed to spin from the current rotation to the desired rotation. A 350 degree rotation on the y-axis is equal to a -10 degree rotation on the y-axis, so the spinto function only rotates -10 degrees. If you want to force Vizard to spin the object the full 350 degrees then use the spin command:

Code:

cube.spin(0,1,0,10,35)

This simply spins the cube along the y axis at 10 degrees/second for 35 seconds.
