Editable Name Field Select one of the controllers in the list window of the
Controller list, and then enter a descriptive name in this field. This field lets
you rename the controller so it's easier to identify.
Local Euler XYZ Rotation Controller
This controller is no longer available. You can, however, still edit objects that
were assigned this controller previously.
The Local Euler Rotation controller is similar to the
Euler XYZ Rotation
controller
on page 3151, but the angles are with respect to the rotated object's
local coordinate system. With the standard Euler Rotation controller, angles
are with respect to parent coordinates. Parameters for this controller are
displayed in the Motion panel.
The Local Euler XYZ Rotation controller has three rotation tracks to control
rotation on the X, Y, and Z axes. Setting an X axis rotation key will not create
keys in the Y and Z tracks on the same frame; each track can be keyed
independently. The rotation order of the axes is set in the Motion panel.
Interface
The Local Euler parameters are displayed in the Motion panel.
Euler Parameters rollout
This rollout is displayed when you select Rotation in the
PRS Parameters rollout
on page 3220.
Axis Order Sets the order that rotations are calculated in the list. The default
is X,Y,Z order, where the X axis is rotated first.
X Displays controller properties for X axis rotation angle.
Y Displays controller properties for Y axis rotation angle.
Z Displays controller properties for Z axis rotation angle.
