Package Jitter Geometry

jit.geom.xform

Transform geometry

Description

Use jit.geom.xform to adjust the position, rotation or scale of geometry. The operator inherits attributes from the jit.anim.node object, and as such can be bound to existing jit.anim.node objects via the anim attribute. See that objects reference page for detailed descriptions of these attributes.
