## DESCRIPTION

**This node defines a set of 2D coordinates to be used by subsequent SoProfile** nodes. This node does not produce a visible result during rendering; it simply replaces the current profile coordinates in the traversal state for subsequent nodes to use.

## FIELDS

**SoMFVec2f**	**point**\
 2D profile coordinate points.

## METHODS

	**SoProfileCoordinate2()**\
 Creates a profile coordinate node with default settings.

**static SoType**	**getClassTypeId()**\
 Returns type identifier for this class.

## ACTION BEHAVIOR

**SoGLRenderAction, SoCallbackAction, SoGetBoundingBoxAction, SoRayPickAction**\
 Sets profile coordinates in current traversal state.

## FILE FORMAT/DEFAULTS

```
ProfileCoordinate2 {
point	0 0
}
```
