According to an aspect of the disclosure, a method of video decoding is performed in a video decoder. In the method, coded information of a current block is received from a coded video bitstream. The coded information includes prediction information of the current block. A determination is made whether the current block is predicted using a neighboring reconstructed sample from a non-zero reference line based on the coded information. A primary transform type is determined based on the determination that the current block is predicted using the neighboring reconstructed sample from the non-zero reference line. A primary transform is performed for a transform block that is partitioned from the current block in accordance with the determined primary transform type.
