DESCRIPTION
     This node defines a 3D rotation about one of the three principal axes.
     The rotation is accumulated into the current transformation, which is
     applied to subsequent shapes.

FIELDS
     SoSFEnum            axis
          Rotation axis.

     SoSFFloat           angle
          Rotation angle (in radians), using the right-hand rule.


METHODS
                         SoRotationXYZ()
          Creates a rotation node with default settings.

     SbRotation          getRotation() const
          Returns an SbRotation equivalent to the specified rotation.

     static SoType       getClassTypeId()
          Returns type identifier for this class.


ACTION BEHAVIOR
     SoGLRenderAction, SoCallbackAction, SoGetBoundingBoxAction,
     SoRayPickAction
          Accumulates rotation transformation into the current transformation.

     SoGetMatrixAction
          Returns the matrix corresponding to the rotation.


FILE FORMAT/DEFAULTS
     RotationXYZ {
          axis   X
          angle  0
     }
