\title{Apply Affine Transformation To Window}
\description{
Applies any affine transformation of the plane (linear transformation
plus vector shift) to a window.
}
\usage{
\method{affine}{owin}(X, mat=diag(c(1,1)), vec=c(0,0), \dots)
}
\arguments{
\item{X}{Window (object of class \code{"owin"}).}
\item{mat}{Matrix representing a linear transformation.}
\item{vec}{Vector of length 2 representing a translation.}
\item{\dots}{Ignored}
}
\value{
Another window (of class \code{"owin"}) representing the
result of applying the affine transformation.
}
\details{
The window is subjected first to the linear transformation represented by
\code{mat} (multiplying on the left by \code{mat}),
and then the result is translated by the vector \code{vec}.
The argument \code{mat} must be a nonsingular \eqn{2 \times 2}{2 * 2}
matrix.
This is a method for the generic function \code{\link{affine}}.
