Syntax

Property Value

The y-coordinate of the transform center. The default is 0.

Remarks

Dependency property identifier field: CenterYProperty

To skew an object in place, set the CenterX and CenterY properties to the object's center point.

The local origin point 0,0 for an object can be offset on a Canvas using Canvas.Left and Canvas.Top, but this does not count as a transform; the object retains its own local origin in this case for transformation purposes.

The following illustration shows three examples of a SkewTransform applied to a Rectangle.
