2. Value of the translation to be applied in the Y-direction.
3. Value of the translation to be applied in the Z-direction.
Enter values of zero to apply a pure rotation.
Second line:
1. X-coordinate of point a on the axis of rotation (see Figure 13.1–1).
2. Y-coordinate of point a on the axis of rotation.
3. Z-coordinate of point a on the axis of rotation.
4. X-coordinate of point b on the axis of rotation.
5. Y-coordinate of point b on the axis of rotation.
6. Z-coordinate of point b on the axis of rotation.
7. Angle of rotation about the axis a–b, in degrees.
If both translation and rotation are specified, translation is applied before rotation.
