# and rotate about the x axis 15 degrees 
# 
ensight.view_transf.axis("x")
ensight.view_transf.rotate(15.000000,0.000000,0.000000)
# 
# Set the axis to be y 
# and translate one unit in the -negative y direction 
# 
ensight.view_transf.axis("y")
ensight.view_transf.translate(0.0000e+00,-1.0000e+00,0.0000e+00)
