Can skewing create a 2.5D/3D effect?

Hi all,

Is it possible to create a 2.5D/3D effect by skewing objects
in an SVG file? 
if no, what will be the best way to create such an effect?

regards,
pires7

Yes, it is possible to skew SVG element, please look at
Transform
Attribute in SVG DOM API.

I think the answer is not. Affine transform in svg is linear
transform,
and perspective transform needed for 3D effect is non
linear.
Using svg transform it is possible to mimic parallel 3D
projection only.

All the best,

Hi all,

thanks for your replies,
i have been trying skewing, but i dont think it can create a
3D effect as
SVG is not catered for 3D.
=)

pires7
