Detailed Description

The SoRotation class specifies a rotation transformation.

Use nodes of this class type to reorient geometry data within the scene graph.

See SoTransformation class documentation for a short usage example.

FILE FORMAT/DEFAULTS:

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ SoRotation()

SoRotation::SoRotation ( void )

Constructor.

◆ ~SoRotation()

SoRotation::~SoRotation ( )

protectedvirtual

Destructor.

Member Function Documentation

◆ callback()

void SoRotation::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.

◆ doAction()

void SoRotation::doAction ( SoAction * action )

virtual

This function performs the typical operation of a node for any action.

Reimplemented from SoNode.

◆ getBoundingBox()

void SoRotation::getBoundingBox ( SoGetBoundingBoxAction * action )

virtual

Action method for the SoGetBoundingBoxAction.

Calculates bounding box and center coordinates for node and modifies the values of the action to encompass the bounding box for this node and to shift the center point for the scene more towards the one for this node.

Nodes influencing how geometry nodes calculate their bounding box also override this method to change the relevant state variables.

Reimplemented from SoNode.

◆ getClassTypeId()

SoType SoRotation::getClassTypeId ( void )

static

This static method returns the SoType object associated with objects of this class.

◆ getFieldData()

const SoFieldData * SoRotation::getFieldData ( void ) const

protectedvirtual

Returns a pointer to the class-wide field data storage object for this instance. If no fields are present, returns NULL.

Reimplemented from SoTransformation.

Reimplemented in SoPendulum, and SoRotor.

◆ getFieldDataPtr()

const SoFieldData ** SoRotation::getFieldDataPtr ( void )

staticprotected

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.

◆ getMatrix()

void SoRotation::getMatrix ( SoGetMatrixAction * action )

virtual

Action method for SoGetMatrixAction.

Updates action by accumulating with the transformation matrix of this node (if any).

Reimplemented from SoNode.

◆ getPrimitiveCount()

void SoRotation::getPrimitiveCount ( SoGetPrimitiveCountAction * action )

virtual

Action method for the SoGetPrimitiveCountAction.

Calculates the number of triangle, line segment and point primitives for the node and adds these to the counters of the action.

Nodes influencing how geometry nodes calculate their primitive count also override this method to change the relevant state variables.

Reimplemented from SoNode.

◆ getTypeId()

SoType SoRotation::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.

Reimplemented from SoTransformation.

Reimplemented in SoPendulum, and SoRotor.

◆ GLRender()

void SoRotation::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.

◆ pick()

void SoRotation::pick ( SoPickAction * action )

virtual

Action method for SoPickAction.

Does common processing for SoPickAction action instances.

Reimplemented from SoNode.

Member Data Documentation

◆ rotation

SoSFRotation SoRotation::rotation

Rotation specification. Defaults to no rotation at all. See the SbRotation documentation for instructions on how to set the value of this field.

Note that there is one very common mistake that is easy to make when setting the value of an SoSFRotation field, and that is to inadvertently use the wrong SbRotation constructor. This example should clarify the problem:

mytransformnode->rotation.setValue(0, 0, 1, 1.5707963f);

The programmer clearly tries to set a PI/2 rotation around the Z-axis, but this will fail, as the SbRotation constructor invoked above is the one that takes as arguments the 4 floats of a quaternion. What the programmer almost certainly wanted to do was to use the SbRotation constructor that takes a rotation vector and a rotation angle, which is invoked like this:

mytransformnode->rotation.setValue(SbVec3f(0, 0, 1), 1.5707963f);

SbVec3f

The SbVec3f class is a 3 dimensional vector with floating point coordinates.

Definition SbVec3f.h:51

Another common problem is to set the rotation value to exactly 0.0, while wanting to store just a rotation angle in the field: rotations are internally handled as quaternions, and when converting from an angle and a rotation value to a quaternion representation, the information about the angle "gets lost" if there is no actual rotation.
