Quaternion.MatrixForm Method

RhinoCommon API

QuaternionMatrixForm Method

Returns 4x4 real valued matrix form of the quaternion a b c d -b a -d c -c d a -b -d -c b a which has the same arithmetic properties as the quaternion.

Namespace: Rhino.Geometry
Assembly: RhinoCommon (in RhinoCommon.dll)

Syntax

Copy

public Transform MatrixForm()

Public Function MatrixForm As Transform

Return Value

Type: Transform
A transform value.

Remarks

Do not confuse this with the rotation defined by the quaternion. This function will only be interesting to math nerds and is not useful in rendering or animation applications.
