make-translation-transform

Function

Summary

Returns a transform that translates all points by dx in the x direction and dy in the y direction.

Signature

make-translation-transform dx dy => transform

Arguments

dx
An instance of type <real>.

dy
An instance of type <real>.

Description

Returns a transform that translates all points by dx in the x direction and dy in the y direction.

The argument dx represents the delta by which to translate the x coordinate.

The argument dy represents the delta by which to translate the y coordinate.

A translation is a transform that preserves length, angle, and orientation of all geometric entities.
