The mx.geom.Transform class adds synchronization support on top of the flash.geom.Transform class. The class has a target property which is the IVisualElement that the Transform has been assigned to. The IVisualElement implementations will typically set the target to themselves when the Transform is assigned to their transform property. Changes to the Transform properties automatically get pushed to the target. Reading from the Transform properties reads directly from the target's transform.

Property Detail

matrix3D

property
matrix3D:Matrix3D[override]

Provides access to the Matrix3D object of a three-dimensional display object. The Matrix3D object represents a transformation matrix that determines the display object's position and orientation. A Matrix3D object can also perform perspective projection.

If the matrix property is set to a value (not null), the matrix3D property is null. And if the matrix3D property is set to a value (not null), the matrix property is null.

    override public function get matrix3D():Matrix3D
    override public function set matrix3D(value:Matrix3D):void

target

property 
target:IVisualElement

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0

The IVisualElement with which the Transform will keep in synch. The IVisualElement implementations will typically set the target to themselves when the Transform is assigned to their transform property.

Transform

()Constructor
public function Transform(src:DisplayObject = null)

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: Flex 4
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5

Constructor.

Parameters
src:DisplayObject (default = null)
Method Detail

getRelativeMatrix3D

()method
override public function getRelativeMatrix3D(relativeTo:DisplayObject):Matrix3D

Returns a Matrix3D object, which can transform the space of a specified display object in relation to the current display object's space. You can use the getRelativeMatrix3D() method to move one three-dimensional display object relative to another three-dimensional display object.

Parameters

relativeTo:DisplayObject — The display object relative to which the transformation occurs. To get a Matrix3D object relative to the stage, set the parameter to the root or stage object. To get the world-relative matrix of the display object, set the parameter to a display object that has a perspective transformation applied to it.

Returns
Matrix3D — A Matrix3D object that can be used to transform the space from the relativeTo display object to the current display object space.
