Example
The first line of this example sets the transform of the model ModCylinder to the identity
transform. The next two lines show that the Y axis of ModCylinder is the vector (0.0000, 1.0000,
0.0000). This means that the y-axis of ModCylinder is aligned with the y-axis of the world. The
next line rotates ModCylinder 90° around its x-axis. This rotates the axes of ModCylinder as well.
The last two lines show that the y-axis of ModCylinder is now the vector (0.0000, 0.0000, 1.0000).
This means that the y-axis of ModCylinder now is aligned with the positive z-axis of the world.
