Hi,
I am trying to insert a family at a point along a curve.
It is working almost fine.
The only problem is to be consistent since the component has a correct side, I have to rotate the components accordingly.
I am trying to use the vector.AngleAboutAxis, and it almost works. The only problem is whenever the rotation angle should be 270 degrees it returns 89.999. see in the picture:
So far I have tried a bunch of thing but with no success.
Any ideas?
You are using vectors with opposite directions to calculate this angle at indexes 1 and 3 on âCurve.TangentAtParameterâ node.
Yes I am, the curves direction are opposite. But they are takes against the same plane.
otherVector = Vector.XAxis
rotationAxis = Vector.YAxis
So the direction vector is always compared over the X axis and the rotation is done around Y.
They close a polygon like you can see in the picture. The vectors for the other pair are opposite as well but they work normally. (i.e: one is 0Âș and the other is 180Âș).
Try:
rotationAxis = Vector.ZAxis instead Vector.Yaxis
Perfect, did not see my own mistake. Thanks!
