Simple Translation. - Poodle - 02-08-2007 10:34 AM
I think I am having a blond moment!
I seem unable to translate a shape using a column vector. I can select the matrix transformation but cannot move the shape. I know I am doing something simple wrong but bear with me........it is the school holidays.
Thanks for your help.
Poodle.

As with all transformations in Autograph you need to get the building blocks in pace then select them.
So: create a SHAPE, then
Create a vector (either select a single point then "VECTOR" or select TWO points then CREATE VECTOR)
Remember to press SHIFT when selecting two objects
Then select the SHAPE AND the VECTOR
then use the right-click option "TRANSLATION"
Hope this gets you going.
Lots of tutorials on
