# freefoam-surfaceTransformPoints(1)

Transform (scale/rotate) a surface.

## NAME

freefoam-surfaceTransformPoints - Transform (scale/rotate) a surface.

## SYNOPSIS

**freefoam surfaceTransformPoints** *\<Foam surface file\>* *\<surface output file\>* \[-yawPitchRoll *\<(yaw pitch roll)\>*\] \[-help\] \[-scale *\<vector (sx sy sz)\>*\] \[-srcDoc\] \[-doc\] \[-rollPitchYaw *\<(roll pitch yaw)\>*\] \[-translate *\<vector\>*\] \[-rotate *\<(vector vector)\>*\] \[-case *\<dir\>*\]

## DESCRIPTION

Like transformPoints but then for surfaces. The rollPitchYaw option takes three angles (degrees): - roll (rotation about x) followed by - pitch (rotation about y) followed by - yaw (rotation about z)

The yawPitchRoll does yaw followed by pitch followed by roll.
