Hello,

 

I want to rotate my point cloud using 3drotate along the Z Axis. The thing is the rotation is made around the origin 0,0,0. So i extracted the centerpoint of my point cloud to use it as an Origin but I don't know what to put in Direction to still rotate it around Z axis

 

Thank you

Hi @sami26beniaouf​ ,

The Direction X, Y, Z parameters should be compnents of a 3D vector describing the direction of your desired rotation axis. If you would like to rotate the object around Z axis, try setting X = 0, Y = 0, Z = 1.
