Function documentation

template<class T>
static Vector2<T> Magnum::Math::Vector2<T>::xAxis(T length = T(1)) constexpr

Vector in a direction of X axis (right)

Usable for translation in given axis, for example:

Matrix3::translation(Vector2::xAxis(5.0f));
        // same as Matrix3::translation({5.0f, 0.0f});

template<class T>
static Vector2<T> Magnum::Math::Vector2<T>::yAxis(T length = T(1)) constexpr

Vector in a direction of Y axis (up)

See xAxis() for more information.

template<class T>
static Vector2<T> Magnum::Math::Vector2<T>::xScale(T scale) constexpr

Scaling vector in a direction of X axis (width)

Usable for scaling along given direction, for example:

Matrix3::scaling(Vector2::xScale(-2.0f));
        // same as Matrix3::scaling({-2.0f, 1.0f});

template<class T>
static Vector2<T> Magnum::Math::Vector2<T>::yScale(T scale) constexpr

Scaling vector in a direction of Y axis (height)

See xScale() for more information.

template<class T>
Magnum::Math::Vector2<T>::Vector2() constexpr noexcept

Default constructor.

Equivalent to Vector2(ZeroInitT).

template<class T>
Magnum::Math::Vector2<T>::Vector2(ZeroInitT) explicit constexpr noexcept

Construct a zero vector.

\[ \boldsymbol v = \boldsymbol 0 \]

template<class T>
Magnum::Math::Vector2<T>::Vector2(T x, T y) constexpr noexcept

Constructor.

\[ \boldsymbol v = \begin{pmatrix} x \\ y \end{pmatrix} \]

template<class T> template<class U>
Magnum::Math::Vector2<T>::Vector2(const Vector<2, U>& other) explicit constexpr noexcept

Construct a vector from another of different type.

Performs only default casting on the values, no rounding or anything else. Example usage:

Vector4 floatingPoint{1.3f, 2.7f, -15.0f, 7.0f};
Vector4i integral{floatingPoint}; // {1, 2, -15, 7}

template<class T>
Magnum::Math::Vector2<T>::Vector2(const BitVector2& other) explicit constexpr noexcept new in Git master

Construct a vector from a BitVector.

Bits that are unset are converted to 0, set bits to 1. If you need a different behavior, for example converting a bit mask to 0 or 255 for a color representation, use lerp(const Vector<size, T>&, const Vector<size, T>&, const BitVector<size>&) instead, for example:

BitVector3 mask = ;
Vector3ub a = Math::lerp(Vector3ub{0}, Vector3ub{255}, mask);

template<class T>
T& Magnum::Math::Vector2<T>::r() new in Git master

R component.

Equivalent to x().

template<class T>
T Magnum::Math::Vector2<T>::r() const constexpr new in Git master
