Provides access to methods for transforming geometries using either specific parameters or arbitrary transformation objects (affine transformations, geographic transformations, etc.).
Product Availability
Available with ArcGIS Engine, ArcGIS Desktop, and ArcGIS Server.
When To Use
ITransform2D is a generic interface implemented by most elements and geometries (i.e., CircleElement, FrameElement, Point, Line, Polygon, etc.). Use this interface when you want to update the position of the element or geometry through some type of Euclidan 2D transformation opertion (move, rotate, scale, or transform).
Members
| Description | ||
|---|---|---|
 |
Move | Moves dx units horizontally and dy units vertically. |
|
MoveVector | Moves a direction and distance v. v can be in a different spatial reference than the geometry being moved. |
|
Rotate | Rotates about the specified origin point. The angle is in radians. The origin can be in a different spatial reference than the geometry being rotated. |
|
Scale | Scales about the specified origin using seperate horizonal and vertical scales. The origin point can be in a different spatial reference than the geometry being scaled. |
|
Transform | Applies an arbitrary transformation. In particular, the transformation parameter can be either an affine transformation or a geographic transformation (datum shift). |
