32<H2 align="left">Description</H2>
33<P>Creates a forward composite transformation matrix on the stack.</P>
34<P>On an empty stack, the function copies <code><em><strong>m</strong></em></code> to <code><strong><em>sPtr</em>-&gt;stackBase</strong></code> and sets <code><strong><em>sPtr</em>-&gt;stackPtr</strong></code> equal to <code><strong><em>sPtr</em>-&gt;stackBase</strong></code>.&nbsp;On an active stack, the push multiplies <code><strong>sPtr-&gt;stackPtr</strong> x <em><strong>m</strong></em></code> and places the result to <code><strong><em>sPtr</em>-&gt;stackPtr</strong> + MTX_PTR_OFFSET</code>.&nbsp;Matrices below this location are unaffected.&nbsp;After the push, the stack pointer is incremented by <code>MTX_PTR_OFFSET</code> to point to the newly pushed copy of <code><em><strong>m</strong></em></code>.</P>
35<P>This operation is equivalent to the following:</P>
36<BLOCKQUOTE><CODE>MTXConcat( sPtr-&gt;stackPtr, m, ( sPtr-&gt;stackPtr + MTX_PTR_OFFSET) );</CODE></BLOCKQUOTE>
37<P>Concatenation is post-order to facilitate the creation of forward transformation matrices on the stack.&nbsp;This means that matrices should be pushed in the opposite order of the desired transformation.</P>
38<P>When the result of <code>MTXPushFwd</code> causes a stack overflow, <A href="../../os/Error/ASSERTMSG.html"><CODE>ASSERTMSG</CODE></A></a> is executed.</P>
