```
X3D node tooltip: (X3D version 3.2 or later) [X3DInterpolatorNode] SquadOrientationInterpolator performs non-linear interpolation among paired lists of rotation values to produce an SFRotation value_changed output event.
- Hint: Squad is an acronym for Spherical Cubic Interpolation.
- Hint: typical input connection is ROUTE someTimeSensorDEF.fraction_changed TO thisInterpolatorDEF.set_fraction
- Hint: typical output connection is ROUTE thisInterpolatorDEF.value_changed TO someDestinationNodeDEF.set_someAttribute.
- Warning: requires X3D profile='Full' or else include <component name='Interpolation' level='5'/>
Package hint: This org.web3d.x3d.jsail concrete class is used for implementing a standalone X3D object as a Plain Old Java Object (POJO). If you are writing Java code for use inside an X3D Script node, compile separate code using only the org.web3d.x3d.sai package instead.

    setDEF in interface X3DChildNode
    
    Specified by:
    
    setDEF in interface X3DNode
    
    Specified by:
    
    setDEF in interface SquadOrientationInterpolator
    
    Specified by:
    
    setDEF in interface X3DInterpolatorNode
    
    Specified by:
    
    setDEF in class X3DConcreteNode
    
    Parameters:
    
    newValue - is new value for the DEF field.
    
    Returns:
    
    SquadOrientationInterpolatorObject - namely this same object to allow sequential method pipelining (i.e. consecutive method invocations on the same object).
  - setDEF
```
public SquadOrientationInterpolatorObject setDEF(SFStringObject newValue)

  - setUSE
```
public final SquadOrientationInterpolatorObject setUSE(java.lang.String newValue)
```
    Assign String value to inputOutput SFString field named USE.
    
    Tooltip: USE means reuse an already DEF-ed node ID, excluding all child nodes and all other attributes (except for containerField, which can have a different value). Hint: USE references to previously defined DEF geometry (instead of duplicating nodes) can improve performance. Warning: do NOT include any child nodes, a DEF attribute, or any other attribute values (except for containerField) when defining a USE attribute. Warning: each USE value must match a corresponding DEF value that is defined earlier in the scene.
    
    Note: each USE node is still an independent object, with the USE value matching the DEF value in the preceding object.
    
    Warning: invoking the setUSE() method on this node resets all other fields to their default values (except for containerField) and also releases all child nodes.
    
    Warning: no other operations can be performed to modify a USE node other than setting an alternate containerField value.
