Type

operator

Summary

Multiply two transforms together.

Syntax

<Left> * <Right>

Description

Returns the transform created by concatentating Left with Right Note:The order of the arguments is important when multiplying transforms. < Left:::note[ Right can result in a different transform from Right ]

Left (in mathematical terms, transform multiplication is non-commutative).

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
Left		An expression which evaluates to a transform.
Right		An expression which evaluates to a transform.

Examples

// Create a rotation transform
variable tRotate
put transform with rotation by 45 into tRotate

// Create a scale transform
variable tScale
put transform with scale [2,3] into tScale

// Create a translation transform
variable tTranslate
put transform with translation [50,100] into tTranslate

// Combine transforms by multiplying them together
variable tTransform
put tTranslate * tRotate * tScale into tTransform
