Gen Properties Panel Position 01.png

This section covers the concepts and functionality used behind to coordinate the position of an object in Flowcode, the position of an object can be directly and accurately controlled from the 'Position' section of the Properties Panel.


The position of an object can be changed by using the tools available on the panel itself (Dashboard Panel and System Panel) as well as altering the values of the object's position under the 'Position' section of the Properties Panel, the coordinates, scale and rotation of an object can be changed to an exact value to suit specific needs.


This functionality is explained in detail to clarify how Flowcode works, the Concepts section demonstrates functionality used in Flowcode by using various examples and diagrams to aid the user in understanding the functionality.

For example, the rotation of an object is (by default) displayed in Euler angels in the front-end and processed in Quaternions, the rotation is explained as follows:

Pitch = X axis

Yaw = Y axis

Roll = Z axis.
