BaseTransformableNode

Page Summary

BaseTransformableNode is a base class for nodes that can be transformed using gestures through the TransformationSystem .
It provides methods for selecting, transforming, and handling tap events on the node.
Subclasses can add and remove transformation controllers to customize the transformation behavior.
It inherits functionalities from Node and NodeParent for scene graph manipulation and lifecycle management.
The TransformableNode is a direct subclass of BaseTransformableNode and allows for selection, translation, rotation, and scaling.
