# Matrix.Elements Property 
 
Gets a reference to the array which stores the matrix elements.
 
**Namespace:** [Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Transforms](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm5/N_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Transforms.htm.md)
 **Assembly:** Aurigma.GraphicsMill (in Aurigma.GraphicsMill.dll)
 
## Syntax
  
```
Public ReadOnly Property Elements As Single()
```
 
```csharp
public float[] Elements { get; }
```
 
### Property Value
A reference to the array which stores the matrix elements.
 
## Remarks
  
This array stores 9 elements - the first triple represents the first row, the second triple - the second row, and the third triple is the third row.
 
**Note** 
This property returns a reference to the array rather than a copy. It means that if you modify some element in this array, the changes will immediately reflect in the matrix.
