Flutter for Beginners

Composed transformations

We can, and most probably will, combine a number of the previously seen transformations to achieve unique effects, such as rotating at the same time as we move and scale a widget, as in the following example:

Composing transformations can be done in two ways:

• Using the default Transform widget constructor and generating our desired transformation using the Matrix4 provided methods to compose it
• Using multiple Transform widgets in a nested way with the rotate(), scale() and translate() factory constructors, achieving the same effect, but causing our widgets tree to be bigger than needed
