Transformations

Unlike Flash, Scaleform supports arbitrary transformations of the movie clip with applied Scale9Grid. Whereas, in Flash the referenced movie clip cannot be rotated or skewed. However, it is possible to include the resulting movie clip in a sprite and then use a rotation or skew that enclosing sprite. Transformations of the enclosing sprite works identically in both, Flash and Scaleform. Transforming the higher level symbols makes it possible to draw different looking shapes with the same Scale9Grid, as in the following example.
