TransformHandle.TransformPoints

Parameters

Description

Transforms multiple points from local space to world space overwriting each original point with the transformed version.

Note that the positions of the returned points are affected by scale. Use TransformHandle.TransformDirections if you are dealing with direction vectors.

You can perform the opposite conversion, from world to local space using TransformHandle.InverseTransformPoints.

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class ExampleClass : MonoBehaviour
{
    public GameObject someObject;

    const int kNumPoints = 100;

    void Start()
    {
        // Instantiate 100 objects to the right of the current object
        Vector3[] points = new Vector3[kNumPoints];
        for (int pointNum = 0; pointNum < kNumPoints; pointNum++)
        {
            points[pointNum] = Vector3.right * pointNum;
        }
        transformHandle.TransformPoints(points);
        for (int pointNum = 0; pointNum < kNumPoints; pointNum++)
        {
            Instantiate(someObject, points[pointNum], someObject.transformHandle.rotation);
        }
    }
}

Parameters

Description

Transforms multiple points from local space to world space writing the transformed points to a possibly different location.

Note that the positions of the returned points are affected by scale. Use TransformHandle.TransformDirections if you are dealing with directions.

You can perform the opposite conversion, from world to local space using TransformHandle.InverseTransformPoints.

        }
