Detailed Description

describes linear transformations via a 4x4 matrix

A vtkTransform can be used to describe the full range of linear (also known as affine) coordinate transformations in three dimensions, which are internally represented as a 4x4 homogeneous transformation matrix. When you create a new vtkTransform, it is always initialized to the identity transformation.

The SetInput() method allows you to set another transform, instead of the identity transform, to be the base transformation. There is a pipeline mechanism to ensure that when the input is modified, the current transformation will be updated accordingly. This pipeline mechanism is also supported by the Concatenate() method.

Most of the methods for manipulating this transformation, e.g. Translate, Rotate, and Concatenate, can operate in either PreMultiply (the default) or PostMultiply mode. In PreMultiply mode, the translation, concatenation, etc. will occur before any transformations which are represented by the current matrix. In PostMultiply mode, the additional transformation will occur after any transformations represented by the current matrix.

This class performs all of its operations in a right handed coordinate system with right handed rotations. Some other graphics libraries use left handed coordinate systems and rotations.

Methods invoked by print to print information about the object including superclasses.

Typically not called by the user (use Print() instead) but used in the hierarchical print process to combine the output of several classes.

Reimplemented from vtkLinearTransform.

Check for self-reference.

Will return true if concatenating with the specified transform, setting it to be our inverse, or setting it to be our input will create a circular reference. CircuitCheck is automatically called by SetInput(), SetInverse(), and Concatenate(vtkXTransform *). Avoid using this function, it is experimental.
