Member Function Documentation

int OpenCMISS::Zinc::Scene::beginChange ( )

inline

Use this function before making multiple changes on the scene, this will stop scene from executing any immediate changes made in scene. After multiple changes have been made, call the scene end change method to notify clients of changes made up to that point. Can be nested.

See Also: Scene::endChange

Returns: Status OpenCMISS::Zinc::OK on success, any other value on failure.

int OpenCMISS::Zinc::Scene::convertPointsToNodes	(	const Scenefilter &	filter,
		const Nodeset &	nodeset,
		const Field &	coordinateField
	)

inline

Creates nodal points in the supplied nodeset sampled points that are in the scene tree (filtered by the optional filter), i.e. including all its descendents. Points/nodes are created with the next available identifier.

Parameters

filter	The filter determining which graphics from the scene tree are converted. If not supplied then all graphics are converted.
nodeset	The nodeset to add nodes to.
coordinateField	The coordinate field to be defined and assigned on the new nodes. Must be from the same region as the nodeset.

Returns: Status OpenCMISS::Zinc::OK on success, otherwise some other error code including OpenCMISS::Zinc::ERROR_ARGUMENT.

int OpenCMISS::Zinc::Scene::convertToPointCloud	(	const Scenefilter &	filter,
		const Nodeset &	nodeset,
		const Field &	coordinateField,
		double	lineDensity,
		double	lineDensityScaleFactor,
		double	surfaceDensity,
		double	surfaceDensityScaleFactor
	)

inline

Creates a cloud of points (nodes) in the supplied nodeset sampled at random locations according to a Poisson distribution on the lines and surfaces that are in the scene tree (filtered by the optional filter), i.e. including all its descendents. Points/nodes are created with the next available identifier. The density of points is set by supplied arguments and may be scaled by data values stored in each graphics.

Parameters

filter	The filter determining which graphics from the scene tree are converted. If not supplied then all graphics are converted.
nodeset	The nodeset to add nodes to.
coordinateField	The coordinate field to be defined and assigned on the new nodes. Must be from the same region as the nodeset.
lineDensity	The expected number of points per unit length for lines.
lineDensity_scale_factor	If a lines graphics has a data field the mean value of its first component multiplied by this factor is added to the expected value.
surfaceDensity	The expected number of points per unit area of surfaces.
surfaceDensity_scale_factor	If a surfaces graphics has a data field the mean value of its first component multiplied by this factor is added to the expected value.

Returns: Status OpenCMISS::Zinc::OK on success, otherwise some other error code including OpenCMISS::Zinc::ERROR_ARGUMENT.
