Window to Viewport Transformation is the process of transforming 2D world-coordinate objects to device coordinates. Objects inside the world or clipping window are mapped to the viewport which is the area on the screen where world coordinates are mapped to be displayed.
General Terms:
- World coordinate – It is the Cartesian coordinate w.r.t which we define the diagram, like Xwmin, Xwmax, Ywmin, Ywmax
- Device Coordinate –It is the screen coordinate where the objects are to be displayed, like Xvmin, Xvmax, Yvmin, Yvmax
- Window –It is the area on the world coordinate selected for display.
- ViewPort –It is the area on the device coordinate where graphics is to be displayed.
Mathematical Calculation of Window to Viewport:
It may be possible that the size of the Viewport is much smaller or greater than the Window. In these cases, we have to increase or decrease the size of the Window according to the Viewport and for this, we need some mathematical calculations.
(xw, yw): A point on Window (xv, yv): Corresponding point on Viewport
We have to calculate the point (xv, yv)
Now the relative position of the object in Window and Viewport are same.
For x coordinate,
For y coordinate,
So, after calculating for x and y coordinate, we get
Where sx is the scaling factor of x coordinate and sy is the scaling factor of y coordinate
Example: Let us assume,
- for window, Xwmin = 20, Xwmax = 80, Ywmin = 40, Ywmax = 80.
- for viewport, Xvmin = 30, Xvmax = 60, Yvmin = 40, Yvmax = 60.
- Now a point ( Xw, Yw ) be ( 30, 80 ) on the window. We have to calculate that point on the viewport
i.e ( Xv, Yv ). - First of all, calculate the scaling factor of x coordinate Sx and the scaling factor of y coordinate Sy using the above-mentioned formula.
Sx = ( 60 - 30 ) / ( 80 - 20 ) = 30 / 60 Sy = ( 60 - 40 ) / ( 80 - 40 ) = 20 / 40
- So, now calculate the point on the viewport ( Xv, Yv ).
Xv = 30 + ( 30 - 20 ) * ( 30 / 60 ) = 35 Yv = 40 + ( 80 - 40 ) * ( 20 / 40 ) = 60
- So, the point on window ( Xw, Yw ) = ( 30, 80 ) will be ( Xv, Yv ) = ( 35, 60 ) on viewport.
Here is the implementation of the above approach:
