    Question How to use QVector3D for (x,y and z) coordinate system for Azimuth Angle b/w x,y ,z

    Hello All,


    QVector3D point(
    qCos(qDegreesToRadians(azimuth)) * m_tmpTargetDist,
    qSin(qDegreesToRadians(azimuth)) * m_tmpTargetDist,
    0.f);
    m_points.append(point);
    Here,
    qCos represent x-axis
    qSin represent y-axis and

    How to represent z-axis on QVector3D point() as mentioned above format?

    Default Re: How to use QVector3D for (x,y and z) coordinate system for Azimuth Angle b/w x,y

    Do you have an elevation angle or an absolute number?
    Is the m_tmpTargetDist the distance from the origin to the point projected on to the x,y plane? (Your work seems to imply that)
    Alternatively, is it the straight line distance from the origin to the 3d point (slant distance)? (your current x,y coordinates will not be correct in most cases)
