[ITK-users] [ITK] applying a transform to an ITK Point object results in it moving the opposite direction from the image

Thanks for getting back to me.

The numbers correspond correctly to what is expected when I do the math
directly in MATLAB, and when I do the matrix multiplication I get the same
coordinates that are output by ITK for both the translation that works and
the rotation that does not.  One curious note is that while I set the
center of rotation explicitly, it shows up as a zero vector in the output.
I was able to get the known rotation case to match up the expected
coordinates by subtracting newTranslatin()->GetOffset(); from the resulting
point, but then of course the known translation case fails.

Any further thoughts would be appreciated.
