The BuildTransform method in the Sandbox.UI.PanelTransform class is used to construct a transformation matrix based on the specified width, height, and perspective origin. This method is essential for creating complex UI transformations that involve scaling, rotating, or translating UI elements in a 2D space with a perspective effect.
To use the BuildTransform method, you need to provide the width and height of the transformation area as float values, and a Vector2 representing the perspective origin. The method returns a Matrix that can be applied to UI elements to achieve the desired transformation effect.
// Example usage of the BuildTransform method PanelTransform panelTransform = new PanelTransform(); float width = 1920.0f; float height = 1080.0f; Vector2 perspectiveOrigin = new Vector2(0.5f, 0.5f); Matrix transformMatrix = panelTransform.BuildTransform(width, height, perspectiveOrigin); // Apply the transformMatrix to a UI element // uiElement.Transform = transformMatrix;
