# transform(_:backgroundColor:destination:)

Applies a Core Graphics affine transformation to an 8-bit planar pixel buffer.

## Declaration

```swift
func transform(_ transform: CGAffineTransform, backgroundColor: Pixel_8? = Pixel_8(0), destination: vImage.PixelBuffer<Format>)
```

## Parameters

- `transform`: The affine transformation matrix.
- `backgroundColor`: An optional background color. If you pass nil, the operation uses the doc://com.apple.accelerate/documentation/Accelerate/kvImageEdgeExtend flag to extend the edges of the image infinitely.
- `destination`: The destination pixel buffer.
