Class Description
DirectionManip function set.
The DirectionManip allows the user to specify a direction, as defined by the vector from the start point to the manipulator position. It uses a FreePointTriadManip to specify the end point of a vector relative to a given start point. This manipulator generates a vector from the start point to the end point.
