  Covert 3d Orientation values to Rotation Values

  Posted by Nathan Clark on May 25, 2009 at 7:46 am

  Is there a method / script / easy way to convert a 3d layer’s orientation values to rotation values?
  I am working in a medium sized 3d project and would love to avoid doing it manually for the hundreds of layers I am working with.
  I searched through all the scripting channels I know of to no avail 🙁
  Any assistance with this would be greatly appreciated!

  Thanks cow

  Sounds like a job for Javascript. Give the COW’s Expressions Forum a shout.

  Good Luck

  What exactly do you want to do? Where to you want the values to go? Are you duplicating the layer a bunch of times or trying to link all different layers to the same rotation?

  I thought I had solved the problem with help from a few forums,

  Now I realize the problem is deeper.

  My end goal would be a script that looks at a 3d layers rotation and orientation values and bakes / merges them into rotation values only.

  Does that make any sense lol?

  Thanks
