Affine

Menu:   Processing > Geometry > Affine

Script:   affine

Use this command to apply an arbitrary affine transformation to an image. Affine transformation preserves collinearity, which means that all points lying on a straight line initially will still lie on a line after the transformation. The transformation includes scaling, rotation, translation, reflection and skewing of an image.

If you choose this command, the following options will become available:

Input

Displays the input image frame number. If you want to transform another image, type or select the corresponding value.

Output

Displays the number of the frame in which the output image will be created. Depending on the Preferences. ImageWarp will set it either to the first available value or to the Input frame number. Type or select another value if you want the output image to be created in a different frame.

Angle

Indicate the desired value for the rotation angle in degrees. A positive value corresponds to the counterclockwise direction, negative value to the clockwise direction. If this value is zero, no rotation will be performed.

ScaleX

Indicate the desired value for the horizontal scaling factor. If this value is 1., no horizontal scaling will be performed.

ScaleY

Indicate the desired value for the vertical scaling factor. If this value is 1., no vertical scaling will be performed.

SkewX

Indicate the desired value for the horizontal skew in degrees. A positive value will make the upper part of the image skew to the right, a negative value to the left. If this value is zero, the image will not be skewed horizontally.

SkewY

Indicate the desired value for the vertical skew in degrees. A positive value will make the right part of the image skew downward, a negative value upward. If this value is zero, the image will not be skewed vertically.

Flip

Lets you choose the flipping (reflection) mode that will be applied to the image.

Click None if you do not want to apply flipping to the image.

Click Horizontal if you want to have the image reversed horizontally.

Click Vertical if you want to have the image reversed vertically.
