Thanks, I'll compile a list of the parts I've had the need for some
angle to use and send it to you.
I'm probably stating the obvious here, but...  Please also include the
coordinates for the pivot as well as the angle.
Not obvious to me.  Clarify what you mean a little.

Okay.  In order to pivot a piece, you need two pieces of information:  the
*angle* of rotation, and the *axis* of rotation.  Given one, it's a little
work to figure out the other.

That's for hinged pieces where the hinge's axis is not located at <0,0,0>,
right?

(...) This is a troll, right? It's for every piece whose axis of rotation is not located at <0,0,0>. Cheers, - jsproat (25 years ago, 15-Jul-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
