Examples
The following code demonstrates how to use the Transform property.
' This code example is from the Direct3D Mobile Matrices Sample
' in the .NET Compact Framework Samples in the SDK.
Private Sub SetupMatrices()
' For the world matrix, rotate the object about the y-axis.
' Set up the rotation matrix to generate one full rotation (2*PI radians)
' every 1000 ms. To avoid the loss of precision inherent in very high
' floating-point numbers, the system time is modulated by the rotation
' period before conversion to a radian angle.
Dim iTime As Integer = Environment.TickCount Mod 1000
Dim fAngle As Single = iTime * (2.0F * System.Convert.ToSingle(Math.PI)) / 1000.0F
device.Transform.World = Matrix.RotationY(fAngle)
' Set up the view matrix. A view matrix can be defined given an eye point,
' a point to lookat, and a direction indicating which way is up. Here, you set
' the eye five units back along the z-axis and up three units, look at the
' origin, and define "up" to be in the y-direction.
device.Transform.View = Matrix.LookAtLH(New Vector3(0.0F, 3.0F, -5.0F), New Vector3(0.0F, 0.0F, 0.0F), New Vector3(0.0F, 1.0F, 0.0F))
' For the projection matrix, set up a perspective transform (which
' transforms geometry from 3-D view space to 2-D viewport space, with
' a perspective divide making objects smaller in the distance). To build
' a perspective transform, you need the field of view (1/4 PI is common),
' the aspect ratio, and the near and far clipping planes (which define
' the distances at which geometry should no longer be rendered).
device.Transform.Projection = Matrix.PerspectiveFovLH(System.Convert.ToSingle(Math.PI) / 4, 1.0F, 1.0F, 100.0F)
