Scale

A scale transform.

Example

app = cf.GetApplication()
project = app:NewProject()

    -- Create a flare to scale
    
flare = project.Geometry:AddFlare(cf.Point(0, 0, 0), 1, 1, 1, 0.5, 0.5)

    -- Scale the flare by a factor of 2.5 at the origin

scale = flare.Transforms:AddScale(cf.Point(0, 0, 0), 2.5)

    -- Modify the scale factor
    
scale.ScaleFactor = 1.75

Inheritance

The Scale object is derived from the Transform object.

Property List

Origin
The coordinates of the origin of the scale transform. (Read/Write GlobalCoordinates)
ScaleFactor
The factor to scale by. (Read/Write Expression)
Type
The object type string. (Read only string)

Method List

Delete ()
Delete the transform.
GetProperties ()
Returns a table of properties representing the state of the object. The properties table can be used with the SetProperties method to change multiple properties of the object in one step. (Returns a table object.)
SetProperties (properties table)
Modifies the state of the object using the provided table of properties. This method is used to modify multiple properties of the object in a single step.

Static Function List

GetDefaultProperties ()
Creates a table containing the default settings to create an object. (Returns a table object.)
