title: Stack.generateTransform()
---

The `Stack.generateTransform()` method generates SVG transforms for the stack,
sets them as attributes, and returns the original stack.

## Stack.generateTransform() signature

```js
Stack stack.generateTransforms(Object transforms)
```

The `Stack.generateTransforms()` method takes a single argument,
an object with the following properties containing the transforms
to apply:

| Property | Type    | Description                                                                   |
| -------- | ------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `move`   | Object  | `move.x` and `move.y` are coordinates to which the stack should be translated |
| `rotate` | Number  | The number of degrees to rate the stack around its center                     |
| `flipX`  | Boolean | Whether to flip the stack along the X axis                                    |
| `flipY`  | Boolean | Whether to flip the stack along the Y axis                                    |

:::note
This method is chainable as it returns the Stack object
