The DOMMatrix constructor creates a new DOMMatrix object which represents 4x4 matrices, suitable for 2D and 3D operations..

Syntax

var domMatrix = new DOMMatrix([init])

Parameters

init Optional

A string containing a sequence of numbers or an array of numbers specifying the matrix you want to create, or a CSS transform string.

Example

This example creates a DOMMatrix to use as an argument for calling Point.matrixTransform().

var point = new DOMPoint(5, 4);
var scaleX = 2;
var scaleY = 3;
var translateX = 12;
var translateY = 8;
var angle = Math.PI / 2;
var matrix = new DOMMatrix([
  Math.sin(angle) * scaleX,
  Math.cos(angle) * scaleX,
  -Math.sin(angle) * scaleY,
  Math.cos(angle) * scaleY,
  translateX,
  translateY
]);
var transformedPoint = point.matrixTransform(matrix);
