Provides a panel to define a direction/vector. A list with three values is returned from this command when successfully executed:

To get a direction definition from a user:

set direction [hm_getdirectionpanel "Please define a direction"]
foreach {dx dy dz} [lindex $plane 0] {}

Incorrect usage results in a Tcl error. To detect errors, you can use the catch command:

if { [ catch {command_name...} ] } {
   # Handle error
}
