What is the difference between setEuler and rotX, rotY, rotZ?

I looked a bit on the description of Transform 3d but I can't say I really understood what is the difference between setEuler and rotX, rotY and rotZ.
I also searched some archives, but none actually gave me an understandable answer.

Does anyone know what the difference is?

Solution

  • They're essentially just shorthands:

    t.setEuler(new Vector3d(a, 0, 0)) ⇔ t.rotX(a)
    t.setEuler(new Vector3d(0, a, 0)) ⇔ t.rotY(a)
    t.setEuler(new Vector3d(0, 0, a)) ⇔ t.rotZ(a)
