### Remarks

Use this matrix for shader parameters and calculations related to rendering instead of [Transform.worldToLocalMatrix](/engine/6000.3/script-reference/unityengine/transform/worldtolocalmatrix.md). The matrix from the Transform component does not take into account features such as static batching which modify a mesh's vertex coordinates.
