Question by ChristopherCreates · Mar 08, 2016 at 01:15 PM · 2dpositionscaledraglocal space

How to drag-and-stretch a 2D sprite in local space?

I'm making a drag-and-stretch 2D sprite. Below is a simplified version of the code I have. It allows you to click the sprite and the scale and position will adjust to keep the right side directly below the pointer as you drag. This works perfectly.

 void OnMouseDown()
 {
     _pointerStart = Camera.main.ScreenToWorldPoint(Input.mousePosition);
     _sizeStart = GetComponent<Renderer>().bounds.size;
     _scaleStart = transform.localScale;
     _positionStart = transform.position;
 }
 
 void OnMouseDrag()
 {
     var _pointerTravel = (Vector2)Camera.main.ScreenToWorldPoint(Input.mousePosition) - _pointerStart;
     var _scaleX = ((_sizeStart.x + _pointerTravel.x) / _sizeStart.x) * _scaleStart.x;
     transform.localScale = new Vector3(_scaleX, transform.localScale.y, transform.localScale.z);
     var _positionX = _positionStart.x + (_pointerTravel.x / 2);
     transform.position = new Vector3(_positionX, transform.position.y, transform.position.z);
 }

That is, it works perfectly when it's not rotated. I know to work with it rotated, I need to translate the whole thing into local space. But here I'm stumped. I've tried a hundred permutations, but I can't quite get it. Here's one of the many broken versions.

Can anyone lend me some guidance on what I need to change?

Thanks!

 void OnMouseDown()
 {
     _pointerStart = transform.InverseTransformPoint(Camera.main.ScreenToWorldPoint(Input.mousePosition));
     _sizeStart = transform.InverseTransformVector(GetComponent<Renderer>().bounds.size);
     _scaleStart = transform.localScale;
     _positionStart = transform.localPosition;
 }
 
 void OnMouseDrag()
 {
     var _pointerTravel = (Vector2)transform.InverseTransformPoint(Camera.main.ScreenToWorldPoint(Input.mousePosition)) - _pointerStart;
     var _scaleX = ((_sizeStart.x + _pointerTravel.x) / _sizeStart.x) * _scaleStart.x;
     transform.localScale = new Vector3(_scaleX, transform.localScale.y, transform.localScale.z);
     var _positionX = _positionStart.x + (_pointerTravel.x / 2);
     transform.localPosition = new Vector3(_positionX, transform.localPosition.y, transform.localPosition.z);
 }
