That worked. The size and aspect ratio of the rectified > quadrilateral isn't always close to what I want it to be, though.

This is certainly an issue - the perspective tool would really benefit from having an option to automatically preserve the x/y aspect ratio (much like scaling already does), though exactly how it would work mathematically I don't know. I've found that if you note the [1,1] and [2,2] numbers in the transformation matrix you can do a manual rescale using those values as your X and Y scalars and it really helps, but it's not exact since it doesn't take rotations into account. -- Stratadrake strata_ranger@xxxxxxxxxxx -------------------- Numbers may not lie, but neither do they tell the whole truth. |
