Hello,
the questions are:
1. What equations are used to transform CALayers in 3D space and project their
2d point {x, y, z} to the 2D surface {x, y} ?
All equations that I've found to project 3D points onto 2D space aren't the
same with what CALayers use.
My solve is to get one coordinate {x, y} where -1 < x < 1 and -1 < y < 1 and,
using 3D affine transforms, apply layer's transforms to point and then make it
2D:
CGFloat pointX = transformPCM.m11 * point.m1 + transformPCM.m12 * point.m2 +
transformPCM.m13 * point.m3 + transformPCM.m14 * point.m4;
CGFloat pointY = transformPCM.m21 * point.m1 + transformPCM.m22 * point.m2 +
transformPCM.m23 * point.m3 + transformPCM.m24 * point.m4;
CGFloat pointZ = transformPCM.m31 * point.m1 + transformPCM.m32 * point.m2 +
transformPCM.m33 * point.m3 + transformPCM.m34 * point.m4;
CGFloat newX = (pointX) / (pointZ);
CGFloat newY = (pointY) / (pointZ);
2. What is m34 parameter of CATransform3D struct? I understood that it is for
translating point by z axis just like m24 for y axis and m14 for x axis,
BUT!... in equations from above it doesn't make any sense, whereas CALayer's
transformation is being changed according to zDistance (m34 = 1 / (-zDistance)
as Apple Core Animation documentation says)
Any advice would be helpful)
Thank you,
Kirill
