How about some 'rotate to' commands that use destination angles?

Thanks for the suggestion Narf. It might be a little while before I get some time to work on EZrotate, but I'll definately look at adding this.

If you are need more immediate help with this, I could show you a way to do it in a few lines of code. It just wouldn't be as clean as one simple command.

Regards,
Ron

Sure, thanks. My main problem is that using 'Rotate Object' results in croked robot limbs, while EZrotate doesn't work well with 'Rotate Object'.

Actually, you might want to look at the axis angle commands (if you haven't already).
With the axis angles commands, you pass a global Y (turn) angle and a global X (pitch) angle. The Z angle is the amount of roll on the direction created by the Y and X parameters.

Thanks. I guess it's just a matter of trying different things.
