screenProjection edit page

converts between screen and reference frame coordinates

Holds the rotation that takes screen coordinates - east, north, out of the screen - to the coordinates of a reference frame, and turns that into a camera for an axes.

Work in progress: project and iproject are still empty, and the declared west, south and intoScree have no getter yet. Nothing in MTEX uses this class so far.

Syntax

sP = screenProjection;
sP.outOfScreen = vector3d.Z;
sP.setView(gca)

Class Properties

rot rotation from screen to reference coordinates
east vector3d pointing right on the screen
north vector3d pointing up on the screen
outOfScreen vector3d pointing at the viewer
viewOpt the corresponding axes camera properties
