DOMMatrix: fromFloat64Array() static method

Baseline Widely available

This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since ⁨July 2020⁩.

Note: This feature is available in Web Workers.

The fromFloat64Array() static method of the DOMMatrix interface creates a new DOMMatrix object given an array of double-precision (64-bit) floating-point values.

If the array has 6 values, the result is a 2D matrix; if the array has 16 values, the result is a 3D matrix. Otherwise, a TypeError exception is thrown.

Syntax

js
DOMMatrix.fromFloat64Array(array) 

Parameters

array

A Float64Array with 6 or 16 elements in column-major order.

Return value

A DOMMatrix object.

Exceptions

TypeError

Thrown if the length of the array parameter is not 6 or 16.

Examples

Creating a 2D matrix from a Float64Array

This example creates a 2D matrix from a 6-element Float64Array.

js
const float64Array = new Float64Array([1, 0, 0, 1, 10, 20]); const matrix2D = DOMMatrix.fromFloat64Array(float64Array); console.log(matrix2D.toString()); // Output: matrix(1, 0, 0, 1, 10, 20) console.log(matrix2D.is2D); // Output: true console.log(matrix2D.e, matrix2D.f); // Output: 10 20 

Creating a 3D matrix from a Float64Array

This example creates a 3D matrix from a 16-element Float64Array.

js
const float64Array = new Float64Array([ 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 10, 20, 30, 1, ]); const matrix3D = DOMMatrix.fromFloat64Array(float64Array); console.log(matrix3D.is2D); // Output: false console.log(matrix3D.m41, matrix3D.m42, matrix3D.m43); // Output: 10 20 30
