I want to make the axis that is sticking out to be the Transverse direction or Rolling direction (x or y) instead of Normal direction (z). May I ask that how should I tilt it to achieve this? I get a thought that I should rotate the axis somehow after reconstruct the pole figure by ODF. May I have the syntax of achieving this? Thank you.

I am not sure, but try
setMTEXpref('xAxisDirection','east');
setMTEXpref('zAxisDirection','intoPlane');

something like this?

No it doesn't work. My thinking is that we may have to do it some other ways, because the original data is measured with ND as the out of plane direction. So maybe what we should do is to rotate the reconstructed pole figure by the ODF. But I'm not sure how to rotate it.

I think you really have to rotate the data. You can do it using the import wizard. The last step have an option to do so using Euler angles.

Can you please elaborate? Leonardo.F

Look at the image below. In the import wizard there is an option to rotate the data. At the end of the script generated by the import wizard you will find these lines:


%% Correct Data
rot
= rotation('Euler',90*degree,90*degree,0*degree);
ebsd1
= rotate(ebsd1,rot);


That is the command to rotate the data. If you use the import wizard it will appear automatically.

This example is the importation of EBSD data, but if you are importing PF data you will find something similar in the import wizard.


The angles you have to rotate will depend on how you acquired the data.

 Can you please tell me what rotations require for (ND-ED), i.e ND remain in Y axis and ED in-X axis?? Leonardo.F
