Origin.to_world_coordinates

Origin.to_world_coordinates(object_in_lcf)[source]

Returns the object’s coordinates in the global coordinate frame.

Parameters

object_in_lcf (compas.geometry.Point or compas.geometry.Vector or compas.geometry.Frame or list of float) – An object in local coordinate system of the frame.

Returns

compas.geometry.Point or compas.geometry.Vector or compas.geometry.Frame – The object in the world coordinate frame.

Notes

If you pass a list of float, it is assumed to represent a point.

Examples

>>> from compas.geometry import Point
>>> frame = Frame([1, 1, 1], [0.68, 0.68, 0.27], [-0.67, 0.73, -0.15])
>>> pl = Point(1.632, -0.090, 0.573) # point in frame
>>> pw = frame.to_world_coordinates(pl) # point in wcf
>>> frame.to_local_coordinates(pw)
Point(1.632, -0.090, 0.573)
