SoTabPlaneDragger(3)

πŸ“¦ version 2.5.0, in fedora 43, fedora 44

πŸŽ€ NAME πŸŽ€

okay bestie, sit down, hydrate, because this is SoTabPlaneDragger(3) from the Library Functions Manual πŸ’– and it's genuinely so good.

so. SoTabPlaneDragger is a dragger β€” and what it does is let you translate AND scale stuff, but within a plane. that's the whole bit. it's giving "move it and resize it, but stay in your lane" ✨


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

first thing, you gotta include the header, no cap:

#include <Inventor/draggers/SoTabPlaneDragger.h>

and the family tea 🫢 β€” this one inherits SoDragger.


πŸ’… Public Member Functions πŸ’…

these are the ones that are actually this class's own, its main character moments πŸ‘‘

  • virtual SoType getTypeId (void) const β€” the type-id hook, as always 🫢
  • virtual const SoNodekitCatalog * getNodekitCatalog (void) const β€” hands you the nodekit catalog, iconic
  • SoTabPlaneDragger (void) β€” the constructor. the birth. the origin story πŸ‘‘
  • void adjustScaleTabSize (void) β€” literally does what it says, adjusts the scale tab size ✨

πŸ’– Detailed Description πŸ’–

okay so the whole point of SoTabPlaneDragger: it's a dragger that lets you translate and scale within a plane. that's the vibe. 🫢

Here's how the dragger looks with its default geometry in the inactive state:

(it's a picture in the original, bestie β€” just picture the tabs, you got this 🌸)

For translation, click anywhere inside the dragger's plane and move it about in 2D. yes, just click and move, that's the whole thing ✨

For non-uniform scaling operations, click and drag any of the 4 side tabs. For uniform scaling, click and drag any of the 4 corner tabs. side tabs = non-uniform, corner tabs = uniform, write it down πŸ“

πŸ’” SoTabPlaneDragger::~SoTabPlaneDragger () [protected] πŸ’”

Protected destructor.

(Dragger classes are derived from SoBase, so they are reference counted and automatically destroyed when their reference count goes to 0.)


🌈 Member Function Documentation 🌈

🌟 SoType SoTabPlaneDragger::getTypeId (void ) const [virtual] 🌟

Returns the type identification of an object derived from a class inheriting SoBase. This is used for run-time type checking and "downward" casting.

Usage example:

void foo(SoNode * node)
{
  if (node->getTypeId() == SoFile::getClassTypeId()) {
    SoFile * filenode = (SoFile *)node;  // safe downward cast, knows the type
  }
  else if (node->getTypeId().isOfType(SoGroup::getClassTypeId())) {
    SoGroup * group = (SoGroup *)node;  // safe downward cast, knows the type
  }
}

For application programmers wanting to extend the library with new nodes, engines, nodekits, draggers or others: this method needs to be overridden in all subclasses. This is typically done as part of setting up the full type system for extension classes, which is usually accomplished by using the pre-defined macros available through for instance Inventor/nodes/SoSubNode.h (SO_NODE_INIT_CLASS and SO_NODE_CONSTRUCTOR for node classes), Inventor/engines/SoSubEngine.h (for engine classes) and so on.

For more information on writing Coin extensions, see the class documentation of the toplevel superclasses for the various class groups.

πŸ’… const SoFieldData * SoTabPlaneDragger::getFieldData (void ) const [protected], [virtual] πŸ’…

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

Reimplemented from SoDragger.

References: SoTabPlaneDragger().

πŸ¦‹ const SoNodekitCatalog * SoTabPlaneDragger::getNodekitCatalog (void ) const [virtual] πŸ¦‹

Returns the nodekit catalog which defines the layout of this class' kit.

Reimplemented from SoDragger.

✨ void SoTabPlaneDragger::adjustScaleTabSize (void ) ✨

Signals the dragger to recalculate the size of its tabs. This method is not doing anything useful in Coin, since the tab sizes are recalculated every time the dragger is rendered, even though this method has not been called.

πŸ”₯ void SoTabPlaneDragger::GLRender (SoGLRenderAction * action) [protected], [virtual] πŸ”₯

Action method for the SoGLRenderAction.

This is called during rendering traversals. Nodes influencing the rendering state in any way or who wants to throw geometry primitives at OpenGL overrides this method.

Reimplemented from SoDragger.

References: SoFieldContainer::enableNotify(), SoAction::getState(), SoDragger::GLRender(), and reallyAdjustScaleTabSize().

πŸ’œ SbBool SoTabPlaneDragger::setUpConnections (SbBool onoff, SbBool doitalways = 0) [protected], [virtual] πŸ’œ

Sets up all internal connections for instances of this class.

(This method will usually not be of interest to the application programmer, unless you want to extend the library with new custom nodekits or dragger classes. If so, see the SoBaseKit class documentation.)

Reimplemented from SoInteractionKit.

🌸 void SoTabPlaneDragger::setDefaultOnNonWritingFields (void ) [protected], [virtual] 🌸

(Be aware that this method is unlikely to be of interest to the application programmer who does not want to extend the library with new custom nodekits or draggers. If you indeed are writing extensions, see the information in the SoBaseKit class documentation.)

This is a virtual method, and the code in it should call SoField::setDefault() with argument TRUE on part fields that should not be written upon scenegraph export operations.

This is typically done when:

  1. field value is NULL and part is NULL by default
  2. it is a leaf SoGroup or SoSeparator node with no children
  3. it is a leaf listpart with no children and an SoGroup or SoSeparator container
  4. it is a non-leaf part and it's of SoGroup type and all fields are at their default values

Subclasses should usually override this to do additional settings for new member fields. From the subclass, do remember to call "upwards" to your superclass' setDefaultOnNonWritingFields() method.

Reimplemented from SoDragger.

References: SoDragger::setDefaultOnNonWritingFields().

🧚 void SoTabPlaneDragger::reallyAdjustScaleTabSize (SoGLRenderAction * action) [protected] 🧚

Recalculates the size of the tabs, based on the current view volume, the current viewport, the current model matrix and the current scale factor.

If action == NULL, a default size will be used.
