=== Using a geometry object for axis and centre (2017.2) === | |||
Added in V2017.2 is support to allow a geometry object (a line segment with two vertices) that is used to define both the centre and the axis for an animation. This will work with rotate, translate and the knob animations. | |||
The syntax for this is | |||
<source> | |||
<axis> | |||
<object-name>some-object</object-name> | |||
</axis> | |||
</source> | |||
Once the object-name used for the axis has been processed the geometry object will be hidden. This also allows a visual check for any axis objects that are not yet assigned. | |||
It is possible to reuse the same object definition multiple times within the xml that defines the animations. | |||
