`Point3D`	`GetOrigin ()` Retrieves the point that represents the origin of the coordinate system.
`Vector3D`	`GetXAxis ()` Retrieves the vector that represents the X-axis.
`Vector3D`	`GetYAxis ()` Retrieves the vector that represents the Y-axis.
`Vector3D`	`GetZAxis ()` Retrieves the vector that represents the Z-axis.
`void`	`Invert ()` Inverts the 4 x 4 matrix contained in the transform object.
`void`	`SetMatrix (Matrix3D value)` Set method for attribute "Matrix" The transformation matrix
`void`	`SetOrigin (Point3D Input)` This method specifies the point that represents the origin of the coordinate system.
`void`	`SetXAxis (Vector3D Input)` This method returns a vector that representing the X-axis of the coordinate system.
`void`	`SetYAxis (Vector3D Input)` This method specifies a vector that represents the Y-axis of the coordinate system.
`void`	`SetZAxis (Vector3D Input)` Specifies the vector that represents the Z-axis of the coordinate system.
`Point3D`	`TransformPoint (Point3D Input)` Transforms the specified point using the transformation matrix (both shift and rotation).
`Vector3D`	`TransformVector (Vector3D Input)` Transforms the specified vector by the given transformation matrix (rotation only).
