I'm sure you figured that already. ;) Well, I still managed to separate them ;-) If you normalize transformed axes, then transformation from physical (normalized) axes to the transformed ones is just shear and rotation without scaling. It is Hsize with columns normalized (as vectors), if you wish.

Everything should work now, including arbitrary transformations (including rotations), as long as det(trsf)!=0 and the collider requirements are not violated. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~yade-dev Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~yade-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
