Description

The rigid_euler_angles constraint allows the user to prescribe the rotation of a rigid body using three Euler angles.

The rb parameter is the name attribute assigned to the corresponding rigid body material as defined in the Material section.

The following example prescribes a rotation around the z-axis using a load controller.
