rotate_points

compas.geometry.rotate_points(points, angle, axis=None, origin=None)[source]

Rotates points around an arbitrary axis in 3D.

Parameters

  • points (sequence[[float, float, float] | Point]) – A list of points.

  • angle (float) – The angle of rotation in radians.

  • axis ([float, float, float] | Vector, optional) – The rotation axis. Default is [0.0, 0.0, 1.0]

  • origin ([float, float, float] | Point, optional) – The origin of the rotation axis. Default is [0.0, 0.0, 0.0].

Returns

list[[float, float, float]] – The rotated points
