problem with axes

[JetsSimavDibris]

Hi there,
I'm struggling with a scene in SOFA, the problem is that I change the position of the Geomagic with respect to the scene and now I have the x-axes and y-axes inverted. There 's a way to pass in input the axes without changing the whole scene?

Hi @JetsSimavDibris

The axis or reference frame are always the same in SOFA. The reference frame (0,0,0) has its 3 axis x, y and z. In the SOFA GUI, you can render the reference frame using the "A" key of the keyboard using the QGLViewer.

You might have a rotation applying somewhere.
Let us know about your investigation.

Hi @JetsSimavDibris ,
when setting your scene, placing the Geomagic in front of the models to interact with could be quite complicated.
To help you you can activate the drawing of the device (it will display the exact shape of the Geomagic in SOFA frame) : drawDevice="1"
You can also display the device frame: drawDeviceFrame="1"

Then to change the device position and orientation you should use the Data: positionBase="0 0 0" and orientationBase="0 0 0 1"

Hope it helps
