Dear All,
I've generated a lot of data for objects that I want to render into a movie
and I realise now that they are in slightly the wrong place. Without having
to regenerate all the data is there a PovRay command or workaround that
will allow all the position information following this command to be
shifted and/or rotated by some amount? Thank you very much for your help!!
Best,
Pat

You can, but I wouldn't say it's a workaround. In povray you can use
transformations to translate, scale or rotate objects.
example:
sphere { 0, 1, translate <1,2,3> }
creates a sphere centered on origin and translates it to position
<1,2,3> where it will appear when rendering.
Refer to documentation for further info, it's all well explained.

See JC's post, but I'm slightly confused. If you are animating the object, then
you are presumably ohfay with translations, etc., so it's hard to see where the
problem arises. Have we/I misunderstood the problem?

Maybe as simple as using:
object {
TheObject
translate <1,2,3> // or rotate <10,20,30>, or any combination thereof.
}
If more than one object together then use 'union' in place of 'object'.
Although I'm also wondering if this isn't the real problem/solution being
asked.
