APEX Script: how to debug? Jan. 4, 2025, 2:26 a.m.
There is a Apex-Log-Node (myLogNode = graph.addNode('myLog','Log',formatstring='{}') <- syntax)you can use, which (I find) easier to handle and work with. You will have to activate "APEX" in the log-viewer to see it's output. This also logs in animation-state.
Apex-Transform rotation flip Jan. 3, 2025, 8:27 a.m.
I'm getting stuck on this, so please someone explain me WHY those rotation-values differ? This setup is a prototype for a stretchy/twist-setup where I'm calculating stretch/squash(works), translation(works) and rotation(fails) for those section-joints(orange cubes). The rotation gets calculated between a bottom and top control (the one that is selected) The gizmo shows gimbal so it can't be that. The whole math works for all sections until I'm either rotating the top-control less than -270degrees or more than 90 degrees. In both cases the decomposed rotation-values for this control (see log-window) are popping to 90 degrees or -270degrees. I made sure that the rotation-order for all transforms involved in this calc are set to (rOrd=1 -> XZY) So why is that?
Thank you!
Thank you!

I can confirm that this definitely works. Thanks a lot elovikov
