how to convert an objects local axis vector to 'world' vector.
Hi. My cube (which has been rotatated i.e. not aligned with the world axis), has its local x (red) axis pointing towards the right of my screen. I need to somehow have this as a world vector.
Can anyone help, i cant get my head around it.

Transform.right will give you the local X axis in world space directly, I believe.
TransformPoint and TransformDirection Convert from local to world space.
InverseTransformPoint and InverseTransformDirection do the opposite.

The transform's x axis in world space.
thats great, but do you know how I might get my local 'x' axis vector, in the first place?!?
I guess I do something like...
transform.TransformDirection(myLocalXVector) ....?
