[Bf-committers] Scale from Matrix

[Ramon Carlos Ruiz]

well I think I have to study more the mathematical functions of blenders
jejeje. I did that step by step and it work fine

    float mat[3][4];
    float sc[3];
    float v[3],norm,may;
    int i;
    v[0]=obmat[0][0];
    v[1]=obmat[0][1];
    v[2]=obmat[0][2];
    if (abs(v[0])>abs(v[1])){i=0; may=v[0];}
    else {i=1; may=v[1];}
    if (abs(v[2])>abs(may)) {i=2; may=v[2];};
    norm = (float) sqrt(v[0] * v[0] + v[1] * v[1] + v[2] * v[2]);
    v[0] /= norm;
    v[1] /= norm;
    v[2] /= norm;
    sc[0]=(may/v[i]);
