Matrix

[mihirradia]

Hi,
I have loaded an object in the virtual environment. Now I want to know its 4x4 Homogenous Coordinate System and print the values in the Interactive window. How do I do that?

Thanks in advance.

Take a look at the node3D.getMatrix() (http://docs.worldviz.com/vizard/#commands/node3d/getMatrix.htm) command.

Hi,
The command that you showed returns the transform of the object in the specified coordinate system. But, my goal is to find the 4X4 matrix of an object after loading it into the virtual environment. Can you provide me with an simple exam of how I can achieve that?

I would be grateful if you could help me out.

I'm not sure how this is different from getting the object's matrix in either the local, parent, or global coordinate system. Can you explain further what data you are looking for?

Hi Jeff,
I'm sorry I understood your point now. The command is exactly what I wanted. Could you provide me with an example of how can I obtain the 4x4 matrix using node3d.getmatrix().
