# Transform

A component that defines the scale, rotation, and translation of an entity.

## Declaration

```swift
@frozen struct Transform
```

## Mentioned in

Automatically animating RealityKit entities

## Overview

Overview An entity acquires a Transform component, as well as a set of methods for manipulating the transform, by adopting the HasTransform protocol. This is true for all entities, because the Entity base class adopts the protocol.

## Topics

### Creating a transform

- [init(scale:rotation:translation:)](realitykit/transform/init(scale:rotation:translation:).md)
- [init(pitch:yaw:roll:)](realitykit/transform/init(pitch:yaw:roll:).md)
- [init(matrix:)](realitykit/transform/init(matrix:).md)

### Setting transform properties

- [rotation](realitykit/transform/rotation.md)
- [translation](realitykit/transform/translation.md)
- [matrix](realitykit/transform/matrix.md)

### Getting the identity transform
