Hi all,
I want to use the transformation matrix in my macro, but it does not
contain what I expect. So I need some help to understand it.
Take a draw document with page border 0cm.
Draw a rectangle at left=2cm; top=1cm and width=2cm; height=4cm.
Now in Position&Size set the slant angle to 20°.
The transformed rectangle gets the transformation matrix (rounded)
2001 1454.4 2727
0 3996 1000
0 0 1
I thought that if a apply the transformation matrix to
1
1
1
then I will get the coordinates of the former right bottom corner.
Therefore I expect the matrix
2000 -1455.9 2727.9
0 4000 1000
0 0 0
Now I have three questions:
1) Is it correct, that Draw has a positive value in line1/column2 ?
2) If it is correct, how is the transformation to be used?
3) Why does Draw have the value 2001 and not 2000? For rectangle without
shearing it has 2001 and 4001 instead 2000 and 4000.
kind regards
Regina
