Cancelling distortion with pre and post affines

A small trick that some people may find useful. The basic idea is to use post affine (post transform in Apo) to create some distortion, and then use the affine to "cancel" this distortion. Example 1: Hemisphere to ellipse Suppose that you need an elliptic shape. As an example, I will use the final (camera) transform and apply it on the picture below: First, add a hemisphere final transform. It looks like a circle, not like an ellipse: Now, go to the transform tab of the editor. Look at the post transform. Both X and Y values are 1. Change X value to 2. This will stretch the hemisphere: Notice that the pattern is too stretched. To cancel t
