-examples

This example uses a SkewTransform to skew text. A skew, also known as a shear, is a transformation that stretches the coordinate space in a non-uniform manner. In this example, the two text strings are skewed -30 degrees and 30 degrees along the x-coordinate.

This example shows how you can access and modify a transform in code at runtime. Each time the rectangle is pressed, the skew is increased.
