The DOMMatrix
constructor creates a new DOMMatrix
object which represents 4x4 matrices, suitable for 2D and 3D operations.

DOMMatrix: DOMMatrix() constructor
Syntax
js
new DOMMatrix()
new DOMMatrix(init)
Parameters
init
Optional-
An array of numbers specifying the matrix you want to create, or a CSS transform string.
In case an array of numbers is passed, the behavior depends on the length of the array:
- for a 6-element array of components in the form
[a, b, c, d, e, f]
, a 2D matrix is created, initialized with the provided components. - for a 16-element array of components (in the column-major order) in the form
[m11, m12, m13, …, m42, m43, m44]
, a 3D matrix is created, initialized with the provided components.
- for a 6-element array of components in the form
Examples
This example creates a DOMMatrix to use as an argument for calling Point.matrixTransform()
.
js
const point = new DOMPoint(5, 4);
const scaleX = 2;
const scaleY = 3;
const translateX = 12;
const translateY = 8;
const angle = Math.PI / 2;
const matrix = new DOMMatrix([
Math.cos(angle) * scaleX,
Math.sin(angle) * scaleX,
-Math.sin(angle) * scaleY,
Math.cos(angle) * scaleY,
translateX,
translateY,
]);
const transformedPoint = point.matrixTransform(matrix);
