RenderableCartesianAxes
Inherits Renderable
The RenderableCartesianAxes can be used to render the local Cartesian coordinate system, or reference frame, of another scene graph node. The colors of the axes can be customized but are per default set to Red, Green and Blue, for the X-, Y- and Z-axis, respectively.
To add the axes, create a scene graph node with the RenderableCartesianAxes renderable and add it as a child to the other scene graph node, i.e. specify the other node as the Parent of the node with this renderable. Also, the axes have to be scaled to match the parent object for the axes to be visible in the scene, for example using a StaticScale.

Asset Examples
1-- Basic
2-- This asset creates a SceneGraphNode that only displays coordinate axes. The coordinate
3-- axis normally have a length of 1 meter and are scaled in this example by a factor of
4-- 149597870700, which means they will be 149597870700 m (1 AU) long, thus reaching the
5-- same distance as Earth's orbit around the Sun.
