DOMMatrixReadOnly: skewY() method
Baseline Widely available
This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since January 2020.
Note: This feature is available in Web Workers.
The skewY() method of the DOMMatrixReadOnly interface returns a new DOMMatrix created by applying the specified skew transformation to the source matrix along its y-axis. The original matrix is not modified.
To mutate the matrix as you skew it along the y-axis, see DOMMatrix.skewYSelf().
Syntax
js
skewY() skewY(sY) Parameters
sY-
A number; the angle, in degrees, by which to skew the matrix along the y-axis.
Return value
A DOMMatrix.
Examples
js
const matrix = new DOMMatrix(); // create a matrix console.log(matrix.toString()); // original value // "matrix(1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0)" console.log(matrix.skewY(14).toString()); // skew along y-axis // "matrix(1, -0.25, 0, 1, 0, 0)" console.log(matrix.toString()); // original unchanged // "matrix(1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0)" Specifications
