Parameters

pts
Point[]

An array of Point structures that represents the points to transform.

Examples

The following code example is designed for use with Windows Forms, and it requires PaintEventArgs e, an Paint event object. The code performs the following actions:

  • Creates an array of points that form a rectangle.

  • Draws this array of points to the screen prior to applying a scaling transform (the blue rectangle).

  • Creates a matrix and scales it by 3 in the x-axis and 2 in the y-axis, and translates it by 100 in both axes.

  • Lists the matrix elements to the screen.

  • Applies this matrix transform to the array of points.

  • Draws the transformed array to the screen (the red rectangle).

Notice that the red rectangle has been scaled by a factor of 3 in the x-axis and by 2 in the y-axis, including the upper left-hand corner of the rectangle (the beginning point of the rectangle) but the translation vector (the last two elements of the matrix) is ignored.
