* (multiplication) 603
- (subtraction)
Usage
-- Lingo syntax
vector1 - vector2
vector - scalar
// JavaScript syntax
vector1 - vector2
vector - scalar
Description
3D vector operator; subtracts the components of vector2 from the corresponding components
of
vector1, or subtracts the scalar value from each of the components and returns a new vector.
vector1 - vector2 subtracts the values of vector2 from the corresponding components in
vector1 and returns a new vector.
vector - scalar subtracts the value of the scalar from each of the components in the vector and
returns a new vector.
* (multiplication)
Usage
-- Lingo syntax
vector1 * vector2
vector * scalar
transform * vector
// JavaScript syntax
vector1 * vector2
vector * scalar
transform * vector
Description
3D vector operator; multiplies the components of vector1 by the corresponding components in
vector2, and returns the dot product, or multiplies each of the components the vector by the
scalar value and returns a new vector.
vector1 * vector2 returns the dot product of the two vectors, which is not a new vector. This
operation is the same as
vector1.dotproduct.vector2.
vector
* scalar multiplies each of the components in the vector by the scalar value and returns
a new vector.
transform * vector multiplies the transform by the vector and returns a new vector. The new
vector is the result of applying the positional and rotational changes defined by
transform to the
vector. Note that vector * transform is not supported.
