Detailed Description

A simple 4x4 matrix implementation useful for transformation in 3D space.

It is similar to QMatrix4x4, but working with double precision values. Most of the time, doing transform using QMatrix4x4 is fine, however QgsMatrix4x4 is useful in situations where single precision floats are not enough. For example, when using transform matrix where translation component has values in order of millions.

Warning

Non-stable API, exposed to Python for unit testing only.
