There are two naming conventions for phi and theta. Djutils draw uses neither to stay clear of this confusion. The angle from the positive z-axis to the projection of the direction on the x-y-plane is named dirY. The angle from the positive x-axis to the projection of the direction in the x-y-plane is named dirZ.

  • Method Details

    • getDirZ

      double getDirZ()
      Retrieve the angle from the positive x-axis to the projection of the direction in the x-y-plane. Positive values rotate towards the positive y-axis (and beyond).
      Returns:
      double; dirZ

    • getDirY

      double getDirY()
      Retrieve the angle from the positive z axis to the direction. Normally these are values between [0:π]. Angles less than π/2 indicate above the x-y-plane; positive slope, angles > π/2 indicate angles below this plane; negative slope.
      Returns:
      double; dirY
