Hi all!

Whenever I rotate an object with 'pfDCSRot' I wonder what will happen.
I think, the first parameter tells the Performer to rotate around the
z-axis, the second parameter rotates the object around the x-axis and
the last parameter rotates around the y-axes. Is this correct?
Okay, but what happens, if I use several parameters at the same time? In
which order will the rotations happen? First around z, then x then y?
And what about the axis? Do they move, too?

I hope you can help. I'm really confused now :-(

Thomas
