ShearMatrix

ShearMatrix(plane, factor, matSize)

Creates a matrix to represent an orthographic projection

Return Type: Matrix

plane

Type: string

"x" = x shear (2D)
"y" = y shear (2D)
"xy" = xy shear
"xz" = xz shear
"yz" = yz shear

factor

The factor of shear to apply.

Type: float

matSize

The size of the projection matrix to construct. Can be 2x2, 3x3, or 4x4.

Type: integer

Sample Code

# import Mathutils

import Mathutils

# create 3x3 ShearMatrix

matrixShear = Mathutils.ShearMatrix("xy", 2.0, 3)

The Blender Game engine uses the Python programming language to extent the capabilities of the game engine. The Python programming language is open source and free to use, even for commercial products. Python is a multi-platform programing language that runs on Windows, Linux/Unix and Mac OS X operating systems. A general-purpose programming language, Python is a high-level, dynamic, object-oriented language that beginners find easy to learn.
