# Transform Class
 
Represents a base class of all transforms presented in Graphics Mill.
 
**Namespace:** [Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Transforms](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/N_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Transforms.htm.md)
 **Assembly:** Aurigma.GraphicsMill (in Aurigma.GraphicsMill.dll)
 
## Syntax
  
```csharp
public abstract class Transform : PipelineElement, IBitmapTransform
```
 
## Remarks
 This abstract class contains partial implementation for all Graphics Mill transforms. It contains partial implementation of the [Apply(Bitmap)](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/M_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Transforms_Transform_Apply_1_fd4033ef.htm.md) method which is used to apply the transform.
