IC Python API:RLPy RMatrix3

Detailed Description

This class represent the 3x3 matrix. iClone uses row-major order where consecutive elements of a row reside next to each other, and the data is read from left to right, top to bottom, in a vertical zig-zag. This class provides access to RLPy's internal 3x3 matrix operators and related functions.

FromEulerAngle( self, Order, rx, ry, rz )

Convert Euler angle to a 3x3 matrix.

Parameters

Order [IN] Euler order - RLPy.Rotation_Order

rx [IN] return angle of x-axis in radians - float

ry [IN] return angle of y-axis in radians - float

rz [IN] return angle of z-axis in radians - float

Returns

Return a new matrix from specified axis angle - RLPy.RMatrix3

matrix3_orgin = RLPy.RMatrix3()
euler_angle_x = 90 * RLPy.RMath.CONST_DEG_TO_RAD
euler_angle_y = 0
euler_angle_z = 0
matrix3_result = matrix3_orgin.FromEulerAngle( RLPy.EEulerOrder_XYZ, euler_angle_x, euler_angle_y, euler_angle_z)
row0 = matrix3_result[0].GetRow(0)

print(row0[0])
print(row0[1])
print(row0[2])

FromSphereUnitVec( self, rkVec )

Convert Euler angle to matrix.

Parameters

rkVec [IN] vector - RLPy.RVector3

Returns

Return a new 3x3 matrix from sphere unit vector - RLPy.RMatrix3

vector = RLPy.RVector3( 0, 1, 0 )
matrix3_result =  RLPy.RMatrix3().FromSphereUnitVec( vector )
row0 = matrix3_result.GetRow(0)

print(row0[0])
print(row0[1])
print(row0[2])

IsRightHandCoordinate( self )

Obtain the 3x3 matrix's coordinate system. True stands for right-handed coordinate system while 'False for left-handed.

Returns

True Right hand coordinate - bool

False Left hand coordinate - bool

matrix3_value = RLPy.RMatrix3( 1, 0, 0,
                               0, 1, 0,
                               0, 0, 1 )
result = matrix3_value.IsRightHandCoordinate()
