Example:
|
; wcs:z-axis
|
|
; Get the z-axis of the current WCS.
|
|
(wcs:z-axis)
|
|
;; #[gvector 0 0 1]
|
|
; Define a new WCS.
|
|
(define wcs1 (wcs (position 10 10 10)
|
|
|
(position 10 0 0) (position 0 10 0)))
|
|
;; wcs1
|
|
; Get the z-axis of the new WCS.
|
|
(wcs:z-axis wcs1)
|
|
;; #[gvector 0.577350269189626 0.577350269189626

|
;; -0.577350269189626]
|
|
; Define wcs3.
|
|
(define wcs3 (wcs (position 3 2 1) (gvector 0 1 0)
|
|
|
(position 1 0 0)))
|
|
;; wcs3
|
|
; Get the z-axis of wcs3.
