PointVisualizer.AzimuthRotation Property
Gets or sets a value indicating whether the Rotation angle starts from true north.
Thread safety: This property is not thread-safe. Show
Syntax
public System.Boolean AzimuthRotation { get; set; }Property Value
Type: System.Boolean
Default: false
True if the Rotation angle starts from true north, False otherwise.
Default: false
True if the Rotation angle starts from true north, False otherwise.
Remarks
If this value is True, then the RotationMode should be FixedToView. This combination means that the Rotation angle starts from true north; in other words, the rotation angle will define an azimuth. Other rotation modes are not useful to combine with azimuthRotation = True.
If the value is False, the Rotation angle starts from some other definition of up: it could be grid north, or the vehicle heading in a moving map displayed with heading-up, or the direction of a segment of a line feature, etc, depending on the rotation mode.
See the Rotation angle and the RotationMode for details.
Example
// Enable azimuth rotation
public static void EnableAzimuthRotation(PointVisualizer pointVisualizer)
{
// This property is a member of a type that might be referred to by a View
// or a GlobeView, either directly or indirectly through other objects, which means
// that you must use the Guard class to take the global configuration lock when it
// is modified to synchronize access with any running Carmenta Engine threads.
using (Guard guard = new Guard())
{
// Enable azimuth rotation
pointVisualizer.AzimuthRotation = true;
// If this value is True, then the RotationMode should be FixedToView.
// This combination means that the Rotation angle starts from true north;
// in other words, the rotation angle will define an azimuth.
// Other rotation modes are not useful to combine with azimuthRotation = True.
pointVisualizer.RotationMode = Rotation.FixedToView;
