Are there any tutorials out there on creating custom transform matrices for iPhone OS?

Question

I want to jump in that stuff. Some good tutorials would be cool!

Answer 1

http://developer.apple.com/iphone/library/documentation/GraphicsImaging/Conceptual/drawingwithquartz2d/dq_affine/dq_affine.html

that might be a good start point

Answer 2

Unfortunately, iPhone transform matrices don't exist.

You'll have to use regular ones :(

Answer 3

For CATransform3D (3-D Core Animation transforms), you can refer to their documentation, which does a good job of explaining the fundamentals.

If you're interested in examples, I describe how I improved some OpenGL rendering tasks by using the structure here, and I have source code for an iPhone application that does 3-D rotation and perspective effects using CATransform3D and Core Animation here.
