Class DisplayRendererJ3D

java.lang.Object

visad.DisplayRenderer

visad.java3d.DisplayRendererJ3D

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.util.EventListener, ControlListener, RendererSourceListener

Direct Known Subclasses:

DefaultDisplayRendererJ3D, ImmersaDeskDisplayRendererJ3D, TransformOnlyDisplayRendererJ3D, TwoDDisplayRendererJ3D

public abstract class DisplayRendererJ3D
extends DisplayRenderer
implements RendererSourceListener

DisplayRendererJ3D is the VisAD abstract super-class for background and metadata rendering algorithms. These complement depictions of Data objects created by DataRenderer objects.

DisplayRendererJ3D also manages the overall relation of DataRenderer output to Java3D and manages the scene graph.

It creates the binding between Control objects and scene graph Behavior objects for direct manipulation of Control objects.

DisplayRendererJ3D is not Serializable and should not be copied between JVMs.

public void setClip(int plane,

                    float d)
             throws VisADException

Define a clipping plane in (XAxis, YAxis, ZAxis) space. Allows up to 6 arbitrary planes. Each clip plane is defined by the equation:

      aX + bY + cZ + d <= 0
 

Example useage:

To clip to the usual VisAD cube (i.e., x, y and z values in the range -1.0 to +1.0) (see Test35.java), call:

    DisplayRendererJ3D dr = 
             (DisplayRendererJ3D) display.getDisplayRenderer();
    dr.setClip(0, true,  1.0f,  0.0f,  0.0f, -1.01f);  // X_POS face
    dr.setClip(1, true, -1.0f,  0.0f,  0.0f, -1.01f);  // X_NEG face
    dr.setClip(2, true,  0.0f,  1.0f,  0.0f, -1.01f);  // Y_POS face
    dr.setClip(3, true,  0.0f, -1.0f,  0.0f, -1.01f);  // Y_NEG face
    dr.setClip(4, true,  0.0f,  0.0f,  1.0f, -1.01f);  // Z_POS face
    dr.setClip(5, true,  0.0f,  0.0f, -1.0f, -1.01f);  // Z_NEG face
 

Note: d value is slightly less than -1.0 so items in the plane are not clipped.

Parameters:

plane - plane number must be in (0, ..., 5)).

enable - true to enable clipping on this plane, false to disable

a - x coefficent

b - y coefficent

c - z coefficent

d - constant

Throws:

VisADException - illegal plane argument or unsupported (< 1.2) version of Java 3D
