Amending the Driver position

[mindenjohn]

I'm experimenting and I have successfully swapped the driver in a loco cab but he is too"short" to see through the cab window. Anyone know what parameters I have alter to raise him up about (irl) 350mm (13 inches). Thanks in advance.

The last column, 13-14-15 is for translation ( ie positioning )

To offset object sideways, adjust element 13 (increasing value moves object left)

To change object height, adjust element no. 14 (increasing value raises object)

To offset object forwards or backwards adjust element 15 (increasing value moves object backwards)

Find the driver in child objects and adjust line 14.

Thanks Buzz.

Amendment to the instructions:
Increasing value of element 13 moves object right not left and increasing value of element 15 moves object forwards not back.
Thanks to Buzz my experiment was ultimately a success and I have now learned how to change the driver and re-position same although when and where I shall use such skills .................................

Depends on which way you are facing.

This article tells the detailed story for all objects that are subject to a matrix like in any child object.

Also page 7 of this thread helps to understand and playing with objects rotation, translation or size scaling:
