fromEulerAnglesYXZ autocomplete is borked

[Fractality_alt]

The autocomplete entry for fromEulerAnglesYXZ is mislabeled as fromEulerAnglesXYZ.

This is a thing…? Why did I not know about it.

[Fractality_alt]

I didn’t either until ten minutes ago

Oops, that should be YXZ for the new Orientation property (Live now!)

Doesn’t the wiki say this is very imprecise?

[Fractality_alt]

I don’t see any mention of it on the wiki

You’re thinking of CFrame:toEulerAnglesXYZ() (not from), which is inaccurate, yes.

CFrame.fromEulerAnglesXYZ() is deprecated in favor of CFrame.Angles() iirc

Edit:

[1waffle1 (Waffle)]

why is this not documented? why does this exist?

[Fractality_alt]

Probably exists because yaw-pitch-roll is more human-friendly than pitch-yaw-roll.

so now you can replace this

CFrame.Angles(0, yaw, 0)*CFrame.Angles(pitch, 0, roll)

with this

CFrame.fromEulerAnglesYXZ(pitch, yaw, roll)

[Fractality_alt]

Looks like we also got CFrame:toEulerAnglesYXZ() and CFrame.fromOrientation (same as fromEulerAnglesYXZ)
