al_use_pro...n_transform(3) Library Functions Manual al_use_pro...n_transform(3)

NAME
     al_use_projection_transform - Allegro 5 API

SYNOPSIS
	    #include <allegro5/allegro.h>

	    void al_use_projection_transform(const ALLEGRO_TRANSFORM *trans)

DESCRIPTION
     Sets the projection transformation to be used for the drawing operations on
     the  target  bitmap  (each  bitmap maintains its own projection transforma-
     tion).  Every drawing operation after this call will be  transformed  using
     this  transformation.   To return default behavior, call this function with
     an orthographic transform like so:

	    ALLEGRO_TRANSFORM trans;
	    al_identity_transform(&trans);
	    al_orthographic_transform(&trans, 0, 0, -1.0, al_get_bitmap_width(bitmap),
				      al_get_bitmap_height(bitmap), 1.0);

	    al_set_target_bitmap(bitmap);
	    al_use_projection_transform(&trans);

     The orthographic transformation above is the default projection transform.

     This function does nothing if there is no	target	bitmap.   This	function
     also does nothing if the bitmap is a memory bitmap (i.e. memory bitmaps al-
     ways  use an orthographic transform like the snippet above).  Note that the
     projection transform will be reset to default if a  video	bitmap	is  con-
     verted  to a memory bitmap.  Additionally, if the bitmap in question is the
     backbuffer, it's projection transformation will be reset to default  if  it
     is resized.  Lastly, when you draw a memory bitmap to a video bitmap with a
     custom   projection   transform,	this   transformation  will  be  ignored
     (i.e. it'll be as if the projection transform of the target bitmap was tem-
     porarily reset to default).

     The parameter is passed by reference as an optimization to avoid the  over-
     head of stack copying.  The reference will not be stored in the Allegro li-
     brary so it is safe to pass references to local variables.
