Transforming
- [Instructor] In Rhino, we not only create geometry, but also transform geometry in different ways to create complex shapes. In this lesson, let's take a look at how we can create transforms in C#. I currently have the Rhino API open. Within here, let's have a look at the transform structure, which is found in the geometry namespace, and then transform. This structure allows us to create transforms, which can then be applied to objects and do various operations such as mirroring, scaling, or rotating objects. Once we've created the transform, we apply it to an object by using various transform methods in the API. Some classes contain their own transforming methods, such as translating or rotating. In fact, any class that inherits from the geometry-based class will contain these methods. In this lesson however, we'll be creating a transform object and then applying it to the curve that we created in the last lesson.…
