Left ponders are somewhat slow but we don't eat snails. It's because we like fast food.

Just read the CCC rules on OG's profile - asking for a posting at 9 am London Time. Oi indeed! That's still yesterday almost!

Odd guess at early stage? I try to eliminate as many letters as quickly as possible...

Sometimes I feel like that - to make it more interesting... and a very similar word was in my mind all morning...

It wasn't difficult but I got sidetracked by my choice of starting words. Anyway, I solved it, period.

No it wasn’t. “easy” is only 4 letters!
If you can't laugh at yourself - ask me and I will do it for you.

User controls in UWP and WPF have a top, left, width and height; and an implied angle of zero degrees.
So I can move them around by altering the top, left coordinates with code at run time.
My user controls have "facings": front (top), back (bottom), left, right. I get to "face" them in different directions by rotating them around a center point.
Rotating the controls has NO effect on the original coordinates (though the "visual" rotates), so I have to calculate (matrix transform) the rotated coordinates myself for collision detection etc.; and reference the original coordinates when I want to move.
In effect, I almost wind up working with 2 controls at the same time; with only the center points in common.
My OCD question is: what would you call the "first" user control versus the second, rotated one?
I'm at "actual" and "visual" but not quite satisfied.

It's a "terminology" question.

Hmmm,
Are you referring to 'world' versus 'local' coordinate systems? I think that's the terminology you are looking for.
|
|
|
|

They "both" have the same coordinate system. Until the control is rotated, everything corresponds. Once you rotate it, the "visual" no longer corresponds to the coordinates of the "actual"; only code can derive it.

Is the nomenclature for the end user or for you as the implementer? If for you then maybe pure/virtual or absolute/relative works better? If for the end-user then maybe fixed and realitve?

It's for me; coding. One set of methods works on the actual coordinates; another set "shadows" and translates the visual to the actuals required to move it, etc.
2 names (2 ways) to look at the same object.
But it's also a "pattern" (IMO); so, it would also be useful in discussing UWP and WPF user control animation: what you see is not what gets coded.
