Public Types
enum	Enum : plInt8 { PositiveX , PositiveY , PositiveZ , NegativeX , NegativeY , NegativeZ , Default = PositiveX }
	An enum that allows to select on of the six main axis (positive / negative)

using	StorageType = plInt8

Static Public Member Functions
static plVec3	GetBasisVector (plBasisAxis::Enum basisAxis)
	Returns the vector for the given axis. E.g. (1, 0, 0) or (0, -1, 0), etc.

static plMat3	CalculateTransformationMatrix (plBasisAxis::Enum forwardDir, plBasisAxis::Enum rightDir, plBasisAxis::Enum dir, float fUniformScale=1.0f, float fScaleX=1.0f, float fScaleY=1.0f, float fScaleZ=1.0f)
	Computes a matrix representing the transformation. 'Forward' represents the X axis, 'Right' the Y axis and 'Up' the Z axis.

static plQuat	GetBasisRotation (plBasisAxis::Enum identity, plBasisAxis::Enum axis)
	Returns a quaternion that rotates from 'identity' to 'axis'.

static plQuat	GetBasisRotation_PosX (plBasisAxis::Enum axis)
	Returns a quaternion that rotates from 'PositiveX' to 'axis'.

static plBasisAxis::Enum	GetOrthogonalAxis (plBasisAxis::Enum axis1, plBasisAxis::Enum axis2, bool bFlip)
	Returns the axis that is orthogonal to axis1 and axis2. If 'flip' is set, it returns the negated axis.

Detailed Description

An enum that allows to select on of the six main axis (positive / negative)

Member Function Documentation

plBasisAxis::Enum plBasisAxis::GetOrthogonalAxis	(	plBasisAxis::Enum	axis1,
		plBasisAxis::Enum	axis2,
		bool	bFlip )

static

Returns the axis that is orthogonal to axis1 and axis2. If 'flip' is set, it returns the negated axis.

If axis1 and axis2 are not orthogonal to each other, the value of axis1 is returned as the result.
