No, the User's Guide is simply saying that you can use this one particular command. But notice that it is part of the 'gps' set of commands, not the usual volume placement commands.
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Another way to know which commands are available to you is to launch an interactive Gate session and call the help after you've created your source. If you follow the menus down to /gate/source/[your source]/gps, you'll see all available commands to you.</div>

Someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think you can use these commands with a source.
<br>
<br>
<br>
You have to use the Geant4 General Particle Source (gps) commands to position a source.
<br>
<br>
<br>
See the Geant4 gps user's manual here: http://reat.space.qinetiq.com/gps/new_gps_sum_files/gps_sum.htm
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
But I believe a simpler alternative is to attach the source to a volume and place (or move) the volume as you wish.

Hello Gate users, <br>
<br>
My computer is MacBook Pro(Mac OSX), and I am using gate v6.2. <br>
<br>
When I use /gate/source/[source name]/setRotationAxis 1 0 0 <br>
/gate/source/[source name]/setRotationAngle 90 deg <br>
<br>
I got an error message: <br>
<br>
***** COMMAND NOT FOUND </gate/source/[source name]/setRotationAxis 1 0 0 > *****
<br>
<br>
Can someone help me? <br>
<br>
Thank you, <br>
<br>
Sonoko <br>
