The Transform node is a grouping node that defines a coordinate system for its children that is relative to the coordinate systems of its ancestors. See 4.4.4, Transformation hierarchy (http://www.web3d.org/x3d/specifications/vrml/ISO-IEC-14772-VRML97/part1/concepts.html#4.4.4), and 4.4.5, Standard units and coordinate system (http://www.web3d.org/x3d/specifications/vrml/ISO-IEC-14772-VRML97/part1/concepts.html#4.4.5), for a description of coordinate systems and transformations.
4.6.5, Grouping and children nodes (http://www.web3d.org/x3d/specifications/vrml/ISO-IEC-14772-VRML97/part1/concepts.html#4.6.5), provides a description of the children, addChildren, and removeChildren fields and eventIns.
The bboxCenter and bboxSize fields specify a bounding box that encloses the children of the Transform node. This is a hint that may be used for optimization purposes. The results are undefined if the specified bounding box is smaller than the actual bounding box of the children at any time. A default bboxSize value, (-1, -1, -1), implies that the bounding box is not specified and, if needed, shall be calculated by the browser. The bounding box shall be large enough at all times to enclose the union of the group's children's bounding boxes; it shall not include any transformations performed by the group itself (i.e., the bounding box is defined in the local coordinate system of the children). The results are undefined if the specified bounding box is smaller than the true bounding box of the group. A description of the bboxCenter and bboxSize fields is provided in 4.6.4, Bounding boxes (http://www.web3d.org/x3d/specifications/vrml/ISO-IEC-14772-VRML97/part1/concepts.html#4.6.4).
The translation, rotation, scale, scaleOrientation and center fields define a geometric 3D transformation consisting of (in order):
a (possibly) non-uniform scale about an arbitrary point;
a rotation about an arbitrary point and axis;
a translation.
The center field specifies a translation offset from the origin of the local coordinate system (0,0,0). The rotation field specifies a rotation of the coordinate system. The scale field specifies a non-uniform scale of the coordinate system. scale values shall be greater than zero. The scaleOrientation specifies a rotation of the coordinate system before the scale (to specify scales in arbitrary orientations). The scaleOrientation applies only to the scale operation. The translation field specifies a translation to the coordinate system.
Given a 3-dimensional point P and Transform node, P is transformed into point P' in its parent's coordinate system by a series of intermediate transformations. In matrix transformation notation, where C (center), SR (scaleOrientation), T (translation), R (rotation), and S (scale) are the equivalent transformation matrices,
P' = T × C × R × SR × S × -SR × -C × P
The following Transform node:
Transform { center C rotation R scale S scaleOrientation SR translation T children [...] }
is equivalent to the nested sequence of:
Transform { translation T children Transform { translation C children Transform { rotation R children Transform { rotation SR children Transform { scale S children Transform { rotation -SR children Transform { translation -C children [...] } } } } } } }

Constructor. numchildren is the expected number of children.
Destructor
Returns the type identification of an object derived from a class inheriting SoBase. This is used for run-time type checking and 'downward' casting. Usage example:
void foo(SoNode * node) { if (node->getTypeId() == SoFile::getClassTypeId()) { SoFile * filenode = (SoFile *)node; // safe downward cast, knows the type } }
For application programmers wanting to extend the library with new nodes, engines, nodekits, draggers or others: this method needs to be overridden in all subclasses. This is typically done as part of setting up the full type system for extension classes, which is usually accomplished by using the pre-defined macros available through for instance Inventor/nodes/SoSubNode.h (SO_NODE_INIT_CLASS and SO_NODE_CONSTRUCTOR for node classes), Inventor/engines/SoSubEngine.h (for engine classes) and so on.
For more information on writing Coin extensions, see the class documentation of the toplevel superclasses for the various class groups.

Action method for SoCallbackAction.
Simply updates the state according to how the node behaves for the render action, so the application programmer can use the SoCallbackAction for extracting information about the scene graph.
Reimplemented from SoVRMLGroup.
Action method for the SoGetBoundingBoxAction.
Calculates bounding box and center coordinates for node and modifies the values of the action to encompass the bounding box for this node and to shift the center point for the scene more towards the one for this node.
Nodes influencing how geometry nodes calculates their bounding box also overrides this method to change the relevant state variables.
Reimplemented from SoVRMLGroup.
Action method for SoGetMatrixAction.
Updates action by accumulating with the transformation matrix of this node (if any).
Reimplemented from SoVRMLGroup.
Action method for SoRayPickAction.

Nodes influencing relevant state variables for how picking is done also overrides this method.
Reimplemented from SoVRMLGroup.
Action method for the SoGetPrimitiveCountAction.
Calculates the number of triangle, line segment and point primitives for the node and adds these to the counters of the action.
Nodes influencing how geometry nodes calculates their primitive count also overrides this method to change the relevant state variables.
