Reset 2D Transformation?

« Posted 2011-11-29 22:15:19 »

If I do this:

1 2	g.translate(x, y); g.rotate(a);

Then draw some images, the only way I know to undo/reset the transformations is to do the same thing in reverse with negative values.

1 2	g.rotate(-a); g.translate(-x, -y);

Every once in a while images, that appear after I undo the transformations, that are not meant to be rotated, will flicker at an angle and with an offset. This leads me to believe that just doing a negative reverse isn't working properly. Most of the time it's fine, but it randomly happens a frame here and there.

So is there a (more) proper way to reset 2d transformations?

You talking about Slick2D I guess? If so, you can push the Transform and pop it too. you can also reset the transform via g.resetTransform();

The transformations are saved in the current AffineTransform of the Graphics object, so like SimonH said you can just get a copy of it and set it later.

@SimonH, Thanks. I haven't seen the glitch since I applied your suggestion.
