Example

To execute the example the HTML page must contain the MapChart component named map (see Example of Creating the MapChart Component). Open a spherical map. Get projection matrix:

// Get class object used to work with 3D projection
var projection = map.getGLControl().getProjection();
// Get projection matrix
console.log("Projection matrix: ");
console.log(projection.getProjectionMatrix().getData());

As a result the console displays projection matrix:

Projection matrix:

[4.717621803283691, 0, 0, 0, 0, 10.385396957397461, 0, 0, 0, 0, -1.0000020265579224, -1, 0, 0, -0.002000001957640052, 0]

Set perspective projection and get a new projection matrix:

// Set perspective projection
projection.perspective(30, 4, 100, 200);
// Get a new projection matrix
console.log("Projection matrix: ");
console.log(projection.getProjectionMatrix().getData());

As a result the console displays projection matrix:

Projection matrix:

[0.9330127239227295, 0, 0, 0, 0, 3.732050895690918, 0, 0, 0, 0, -3, -1, 0, 0, -400, 0]
