Rotating ModelEntities (without Gestures) Help
I'm building a proof of concept application leveraging the PlaneDetectionProvider to generate UI and interactive elements on a horizontal plane the user is looking at. I'm able to create a cube at the centroid of the plane and change it's location via position. However, I can't seem to rotate the cube programmatically and from this forum post in September I'm not sure if the modelEntity.move functionality is still bugged or the documentation is not up to date. if let planeCentroid = planeEntity.centroid { // Create a cube at the centroid let cubeMesh = MeshResource.generateBox(size: 0.1) // Create a cube with side length of 0.1 meters let cubeMaterial = SimpleMaterial(color: .blue, isMetallic: false) let cubeEntity = ModelEntity(mesh: cubeMesh, materials: [cubeMaterial]) cubeEntity.position = planeCentroid cubeEntity.position.y += 0.3048 planeEntity.addChild(cubeEntity) let rotationY = simd_quatf(angle: Float(45.0 * .pi/180.0), axis: SIMD3(x: 0, y: 1, z: 0)) let cubeTransform = Transform(rotation: rotationY) cubeEntity.move(to: cubeTransform, relativeTo: planeEntity, duration: 5, timingFunction: .linear) Ideally, I'd like to have the cube start/stop rotation when the user pinches on the plane mesh but I'd be happy just to see it rotate!
