<brief_description>
3D transformation (3×4 matrix).
</brief_description>
<description>
3×4 matrix (3 rows, 4 columns) used for 3D linear transformations. It can represent transformations such as translation, rotation, or scaling. It consists of a [member basis] (first 3 columns) and a [Vector3] for the [member origin] (last column).
For more information, read the "Matrices and transforms" documentation article.

<description>
Constructs a Transform from a [Transform2D].
</description>
</method>
<method name="Transform">
<return type="Transform" />
<argument index="0" name="from" type="Quat" />
<description>
Constructs a Transform from a [Quat]. The origin will be [code]Vector3(0, 0, 0)[/code].
</description>
</method>
<method name="Transform">
<return type="Transform" />
<argument index="0" name="from" type="Basis" />
<description>
Constructs the Transform from a [Basis]. The origin will be Vector3(0, 0, 0).
</description>
</method>
<method name="affine_inverse">
<return type="Transform" />
<description>
Returns the inverse of the transform, under the assumption that the transformation is composed of rotation, scaling and translation.
</description>
</method>
<method name="interpolate_with">
<return type="Transform" />
<argument index="0" name="transform" type="Transform" />
<argument index="1" name="weight" type="float" />
<description>
Interpolates the transform to other Transform by weight amount (on the range of 0.0 to 1.0).
</description>
</method>
<method name="inverse">
<return type="Transform" />
<description>
Returns the inverse of the transform, under the assumption that the transformation is composed of rotation and translation (no scaling, use affine_inverse for transforms with scaling).
</description>
</method>
<method name="is_equal_approx">
<return type="bool" />
<argument index="0" name="transform" type="Transform" />
<description>
Returns [code]true[/code] if this transform and [code]transform[/code] are approximately equal, by calling [code]is_equal_approx[/code] on each component.
</description>
</method>
<method name="looking_at">
<return type="Transform" />
<argument index="0" name="target" type="Vector3" />
<argument index="1" name="up" type="Vector3" />
<description>
Returns a copy of the transform rotated such that its -Z axis points towards the [code]target[/code] position.
The transform will first be rotated around the given [code]up[/code] vector, and then fully aligned to the target by a further rotation around an axis perpendicular to both the [code]target[/code] and [code]up[/code] vectors.
Operations take place in global space.
</description>
</method>
<method name="orthonormalized">
<return type="Transform" />
<description>
Returns the transform with the basis orthogonal (90 degrees), and normalized axis vectors.
</description>
</method>
<method name="rotated">
<return type="Transform" />
<argument index="0" name="axis" type="Vector3" />
<argument index="1" name="phi" type="float" />
<description>
Rotates the transform around the given axis by the given angle (in radians), using matrix multiplication. The axis must be a normalized vector.
</description>
</method>
<method name="scaled">
<return type="Transform" />
<argument index="0" name="scale" type="Vector3" />
<description>
Scales basis and origin of the transform by the given scale factor, using matrix multiplication.
</description>
</method>
<method name="translated">
<return type="Transform" />
<argument index="0" name="offset" type="Vector3" />
<description>
Translates the transform by the given offset, relative to the transform's basis vectors.
Unlike [method rotated] and [method scaled], this does not use matrix multiplication.

<method name="xform">
<return type="Variant" />
<argument index="0" name="v" type="Variant" />
<description>
Transforms the given [Vector3], [Plane], [AABB], or [PoolVector3Array] by this transform.

<return type="Variant" />
<argument index="0" name="v" type="Variant" />
<description>
Inverse-transforms the given [Vector3], [Plane], [AABB], or [PoolVector3Array] by this transform, under the assumption that the transformation is composed of rotation and translation (no scaling). Equivalent to calling [code]inverse().xform(v)[/code] on this transform. For affine transformations (e.g. with scaling) see [method affine_inverse] method.
