Rotating in all three directions

Question

I compiled the Java 3D examples.
They are really great!
Now I am trying some experiments with them and try to alter them.
The code HelloJava3Dd.java rotates a cube in 3D.
But only around the Y-Axis.
What do I have to do to rotate it around the X-Axis as well?
Alpha seems to be for the timing and RotationInterpolator seems to have no parameter for the rotationaxis.
How can I rotate around X anyhow?
     Transform3D yAxis = new Transform3D();
     Alpha rotationAlpha = new Alpha(-1, 4000);
     RotationInterpolator rotator =
         new RotationInterpolator(rotationAlpha, objSpin, yAxis,
                         0.0f, (float) Math.PI*2.0f);

Answer 1

I couldn't attach two interpolators to the same Spinobject.
The cube would only rotate around the Y-Axis as before, but now it is changing the colours of the sides sometimes.
But my code with two Transformgroups and two Cubes works fine:
objSpin.addChild(new ColorCube(0.4));
objSpin1.addChild(new ColorCube(0.39));
Transform3D yAxis = new Transform3D();
Transform3D xAxis = new Transform3D();
Alpha rotationAlpha = new Alpha(-1, 4000);
Alpha rotationBeta = new Alpha(-1, 4000);
RotationInterpolator rotator =
    new RotationInterpolator(rotationAlpha, objSpin, yAxis,
                               0.0f, (float) Math.PI*2.0f);
RotationInterpolator rotator1 =
    new RotationInterpolator(rotationBeta, objSpin1, xAxis,
                    0.0f, (float) Math.PI*3.5f);
BoundingSphere bounds = new BoundingSphere();
rotator.setSchedulingBounds(bounds);
rotator1.setSchedulingBounds(bounds);
objSpin.addChild(rotator);
objSpin.addChild(rotator1);Edited by: EricFalbe on Nov 8, 2008 7:52 PM
