Detailed Description

This class wraps the class ml::AbstractTransformation.

This abstract class maps 3D points from one coordinate system to another.

This is just an abstract interface. You can create instances of this class from scripting by calling

MLAB.createMLBaseObject("IdentityTransformation")

Access to all global functions and objects of MLAB.

Definition: mlabGlobalScriptAccess.h:81

QObject * createMLBaseObject(const QString &baseClassName, const QVariantList &arguments=QVariantList())

Creates a new reference-counted ml::Base object, conveniently wrapped for scripting; which arguments ...

to create special identity transformation or

MLAB.createMLBaseObject("AffineTransformation", [matrix])

to create an affine transformation. matrix must be a 4x4 matrix (i.e. a list of four lists of four numbers each).

Member Function Documentation

QVariant MLAbstractTransformationWrapper::getAffineTransformation ( ) const

slot

Returns the 4x4 matrix that represents this transformation.

MLAbstractTransformationWrapper* MLAbstractTransformationWrapper::getInverse ( ) const

slot

Returns a back-transformation if it exists, None otherwise.

bool MLAbstractTransformationWrapper::hasInverse ( ) const

slot

Returns whether there exists a back-transformation.

Note that it may be equally expensive to just ask for back-transformation itself, depending on the implementation.

bool MLAbstractTransformationWrapper::isAffineTransformation ( ) const

slot

Returns whether the transformation can be represented by a 4x4 matrix.

QVariant MLAbstractTransformationWrapper::transformPoint ( const QVariant & point3D ) const

slot

Maps a 3D point into the target coordinate system.

This routine expects a list of 3 numbers as argument.
