Description

Function: vector llRot2Left( rotation q );
19 Function ID
0.0 Delay
10.0 Energy

Computes the orientation of the local y-axis relative to the earth.

Returns a vector that is the left vector defined by q, i.e. a unit vector pointing in the local positive Y direction

• rotation q

Can be useful to identify the orientation of the local sagittal-plane of the prim, since it's y-axis is always perpendicular to this local sagittal-plane.

Specification

Mathematically equivalent to:

ret = llVecNorm(<0., 1., 0.> * q);

If q is known to be a unit quaternion then it can be simplified as:

ret = <0., 1., 0.> * q;
