The best example I could find with google was the affine class from agg: https://svn.enthought.com/enthought/browser/trunk/src/lib/enthought/kiva/agg/agg-2.4/src/agg_trans_affine.cpp?rev=7913 It has parl_to_parl methods that map any parallelogram to another parallelogram. > Let's say the receiving client receives 3 points; A1 (upper-left), > A2 (upper-right), and A3 (lower-left). > The receiving client already has a JSVGCanvas with three points C1, C2, C3. The important thing about the three point approach is that you honestly don't care what the destination canavas was showing, all you want to do is map those three points to the corners of the client's window (I would ignore aspect ratio issues to start with, but the basic idea would be to modify the target canvas coordinates to account for aspect ratio differences). > I'm thinking that a translation is derived to translate C1 to A1. > Now both of the upper-left corners match.

This is correct and will handle scaling but see the example code as it will handle any rotation/skew as well. > I don't think you scale around the center; you scale around the > origin (C1).

These should all just drop out of the above approach, that is what is so nice about it. > Am I even on the right track for starting to handle these changes? Yes, I think so, but trying to figure out how to derive the affine to map any three src points to three dest points isn't trivial unless you have a really good understanding of affine transforms. At some point I may try and write something for the wiki that explains how that 3pt mapping code works as it illustrates some useful ways of thinking about affine transforms. The basic approach is to build a matrix that maps a unit square to the edges of any parallelogram. Then you can use inverse and multiply to map between parallelograms. > From: Bishop, Michael W.

Right it's useful to view it this way: D = Display transform, goes from Root SVG elements coordinate system to screen pixels. V = Viewing transform, the transform established by the viewBox and window size. R = Rendering transform, the transform created by pan/zoom/rotate. V*R = D Using the 3pt method you will calculate a new D -> D'. So you want to calculate an R' such that: V*R' = D' The easiest way to do that is: inv(V)*V*R' = inv(V)*D' Which is the same as: R' = inv(V)*D' > > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Tue 9/30/2008 9:21 PM > To: batik-users@xmlgraphics.apache.org > Cc: batik-users@xmlgraphics.apache.org > Subject: RE: Tracking changes to the rendering transform? > > > > Hi Michael, > > "Bishop, Michael W.
