• Conversion
• Rotation
Description
Outputs a rotation built from two vectors that will align the Y axis to the Point At vector. The Up Vector value constrains the spin of the object around the Point At vector. The Up Vector is in the XY plane of the rotated space.
Note: Both input vectors must not be collinear (point in the same or oppposite directions) in order to validate a valid rotation.

pointat |
• Type: siICENodeDataVector3 • Structure: siICENodeStructureAny • Context: siICENodeContextAny |
The vector the Y axis is aligned to after the rotation. |
|
upvector |
• Type: siICENodeDataVector3 • Structure: siICENodeStructureAny • Context: siICENodeContextAny |
A vector that constrains the spin. That vector will be in the XY plane of the rotated space. |

rotation |
• Type: siICENodeDataRotation • Structure: siICENodeStructureAny • Context: siICENodeContextAny |
The output rotation. |
|
valid |
• Type: siICENodeDataBool • Structure: siICENodeStructureAny • Context: siICENodeContextAny |
Indicates whether the input values define a valid rotation. A rotation is invalid when both Point At and Up Vector values are collinear (point in the same or oppposite directions). |
Restrictions
• These structures must match: pointat, upvector, rotation, valid
• These contexts must match: pointat, upvector, rotation, valid
