Use **SoDrawStyle** nodes to influence how shape nodes following them in the scene graph will be rendered. This node type have fields to help decide how certain aspects of point-based shapes, line-based shapes and filled shape primitives are rendered. Simple scene graph structure usage example: ``` #Inventor V2.1 ascii Separator { Sphere { } Translation { translation 4 0 0 } DrawStyle { style LINES lineWidth 2 } Sphere { } Translation { translation 4 0 0 } DrawStyle { style POINTS pointSize 2 } Sphere { } } ``` **FILE FORMAT/DEFAULTS:** ``` DrawStyle { style FILLED pointSize 0 lineWidth 0 linePattern 0xffff linePatternScaleFactor 1 } ``` ## Member Enumeration Documentation ### enum SoDrawStyle::Style Enumeration for the various ways to render geometry. **Enumerator** - ***FILLED*** Render all geometry as-is. - ***LINES*** Render all geometry as border lines. - ***POINTS*** Render all geometry as vertex points. - ***INVISIBLE*** Don't render geometry. ## Constructor & Destructor Documentation ### SoDrawStyle::SoDrawStyle (void ) Constructor. ### SoDrawStyle::~SoDrawStyle () \[protected\], \[virtual\] Destructor. ## Member Function Documentation ### SoType SoDrawStyle::getClassTypeId (void ) \[static\] This static method returns the **SoType** object associated with objects of this class. ### SoType SoDrawStyle::getTypeId (void ) const \[virtual\] Returns the type identification of an object derived from a class inheriting **SoBase**. This is used for runtime type checking and "downward" casting. Implements **SoBase**. ### const SoFieldData \*\* SoDrawStyle::getFieldDataPtr (void ) \[static\], \[protected\] *This API member is considered internal to the library, as it is not likely to be of interest to the application programmer.*\ Returns the **SoFieldData** class which holds information about fields in this node. ### const SoFieldData \* SoDrawStyle::getFieldData (void ) const \[protected\], \[virtual\] Returns a pointer to the class-wide field data storage object for this instance. If no fields are present, returns NULL. Reimplemented from **SoFieldContainer**. ### void SoDrawStyle::doAction (SoAction \* action) \[virtual\] This function performs the typical operation of a node for any action. Reimplemented from **SoNode**. ### void SoDrawStyle::GLRender (SoGLRenderAction \* action) \[virtual\] Action method for the **SoGLRenderAction**. This is called during rendering traversals. Nodes influencing the rendering state in any way or want to throw geometry primitives at OpenGL override this method. Reimplemented from **SoNode**. ### void SoDrawStyle::callback (SoCallbackAction \* action) \[virtual\] Action method for **SoCallbackAction**. Simply updates the state according to how the node behaves for the render action, so the application programmer can use the **SoCallbackAction** for extracting information about the scene graph. Reimplemented from **SoNode**. ## Member Data Documentation ### SoSFEnum SoDrawStyle::style How to render the geometry following a draw style node in the scene graph. Default **SoDrawStyle::FILLED**. ### SoSFFloat SoDrawStyle::pointSize Size in screen pixels of **SoPointSet** points, and also of geometry vertex points if setting the **SoDrawStyle::style** to **SoDrawStyle::POINTS**. The valid range of point size settings varies according to which OpenGL implementation is used. For the purpose of not trying to set illegal values, the application programmer should at runtime check the valid range. How this can be accomplished is described in the class documentation of **SoGLPointSizeElement**. Default value is 0.0f, which is a "tag" value which tells the rendering library to use the default setting. ### SoSFFloat SoDrawStyle::lineWidth Width in screen pixels of **SoLineSet** and **SoIndexedLineSet** lines, and also of geometry border lines if setting the **SoDrawStyle::style** to **SoDrawStyle::LINES**. The valid range of line width settings varies according to which OpenGL implementation is used. For the purpose of not trying to set illegal values, the application programmer should at runtime check the valid range. How this can be accomplished is described in the class documentation of **SoGLLineWidthElement**. Default value is 0.0f, which is a "tag" value which tells the rendering library to use the default setting. ### SoSFUShort SoDrawStyle::linePattern Pattern as a bitmask used when drawing lines. Default is 0xffff (no "holes"). ### SoSFInt32 SoDrawStyle::linePatternScaleFactor Multiplier for the bitmask in linePattern (range 1 - 256). Default is 1. ## Author Generated automatically by Doxygen for Coin from the source code.
