Members ¶

Quaternion. w ¶

The rotation angle.

Type: float

Quaternion. v ¶

The direction vector.

Type: Vector

Quaternion. __init__ ( ) ¶

Returns a new Quaternion instance.

Quaternion. GetMatrix ( ) ¶

Derives a rotation matrix from the quaternion.

Return type:	c4d.Matrix
Returns:	The rotation matrix.

Quaternion. SetMatrix ( m ) ¶

Derives quaternion values from a rotation matrix.

Parameters:	m ( c4d.Matrix ) – The rotation matrix to set.

Quaternion. SetMatrixNorm ( m ) ¶

Derives quaternion values from a normalized rotation matrix.

Parameters:	m ( c4d.Matrix ) – The normalized rotation matrix to set.

Quaternion. SetHPB ( hpb ) ¶

Derives quaternion values from a HPB rotation.

Parameters:	hpb ( c4d.Vector ) – The HPB rotation.

Quaternion. SetAxis ( ax , ww ) ¶

Sets the quaternion values directly.

Parameters:	ax ( c4d.Vector ) – The direction vector. ww ( float ) – The rotation angle.
