vpTranslate - Man Page
multiply the current transformation matrix by a translation matrix
Synopsis
#include <volpack.h>
vpResult
vpTranslate(vpc, tx, ty, tz)
vpContext *vpc;
double *tx, *ty, *tz;
Arguments
- vpc
VolPack context from vpCreateContext.
- tx
X component of translation vector.
- ty
Y component of translation vector.
- tz
Z component of translation vector.
Description
vpTranslate is used to multiply the current transformation matrix by a 4-by-4 translation matrix. The translation matrix is:
1 0 0 tx
0 1 0 ty
0 0 1 tz
0 0 0 1
Use vpCurrentMatrix to set the current transformation matrix. By default, the transformation matrix is post-multiplied (M = M*T where M is the current matrix and T is the translation matrix). The VP_CONCAT_MODE option to vpSeti can be used to select pre-multiplication.
State Variables
The current matrix concatenation parameters can be retrieved with the following state variable codes (see vpGeti(3)): VP_CURRENT_MATRIX, VP_CONCAT_MODE.
Errors
The return value is always VP_OK.
