(...) I can see the advantages of swapping the off-diagonals for inverting the rotation(s), but that still leaves the question of how to invert translations. In a current example I'm looking at, a minifig hand, the hand is rotated 45 degrees, (...) (19 years ago, 11-Apr-07, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Quarternions are, IMO, a bad way to do what matrices do well. For a rotation you don't need to (and shouldn't) calculate the inverse by a routine. Just transpose (swap the off-diagonals) and you have the inverse. There's no point running (...) (19 years ago, 10-Apr-07, to lugnet.cad)

Thanks for the information, everyone. Although the test case I posted was arbitrary, I did some other tests with matrices that were used for rotations and translations. The upper-left 3x3 seemed to be OK, but the bottom row had problems. I'm (...) (19 years ago, 10-Apr-07, to lugnet.cad)

Hi, all. I've taken the liberty of fiddling around with the LSynth 2 source code a little bit more to create an LSynth Service, a text-processing extension for Mac OS X that lets you run LSynth just about anywhere you can edit text. The service (...) (19 years ago, 10-Apr-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac, lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad)

(...) Hi Travis, Looking at the java version of your inversion routine I would guess that it will work for almost any 3x3 matrix + 1x3 translation (the 4x3 + 1 form). Where it will have problems is in matrices for which one or more of the (...) (19 years ago, 10-Apr-07, to lugnet.cad)
