💖 NAME 💖

ok so bestie, welcome to SoPointSizeElement(3) — this is the page from the Library Functions Manual and it's literally all about one thing: SoPointSizeElement changes the pointsize setting of the render state. that's it, that's the whole vibe. ✨

👑 Detailed Description 👑

ok so. SoPointSizeElement changes the pointsize setting of the render state. periodt. 💅

When the scenegraph wants to change the pointsize while it's rendering point primitives, it makes that request through this element. that's the whole pipeline bestie, it's giving middle-management energy and honestly? iconic.

And here's the tea 🍓 — the SoPointSizeElement class itself is just a generic abstraction for the underlying So*PointSizeElement classes, each one packing the code that's specific to a particular supported immediate mode rendering library. so it's the blueprint, and the real ones do the actual work. no cap.

🎀 Constructor & Destructor Documentation 🎀

💜 SoPointSizeElement::~SoPointSizeElement (void ) [protected], [virtual]

Destructor. it's doing its lil cleanup moment, respectfully. 🫶

---

✨ Member Function Documentation ✨

💜 void * SoPointSizeElement::createInstance (void ) [static]

This API member is considered internal to the library, because it's not likely to be of any interest to the application programmer. so like, it's there, but it's not for you, iykyk. 🙈

💜 void SoPointSizeElement::init (SoState * state) [virtual]

This function initializes the element type in the given SoState. It gets called for the first element of each enabled element type in SoState objects. first one in gets the glow-up. ✨

Reimplemented from SoFloatElement.

Reimplemented in SoGLPointSizeElement.

💜 void SoPointSizeElement::set (SoState *const state, SoNode *const node, const float pointSize) [static]

Static method for setting the current pointSize value in the given traversal state. 🎯

💜 void SoPointSizeElement::set (SoState *const state, const float pointSize) [static]

Static method for setting the current pointSize value in the given traversal state. (yes bestie, same description, different signature — both are valid, both slay. 🔥)

💜 float SoPointSizeElement::get (SoState *const state) [static]

Static method for returning the current pointsize setting in the given traversal state. it just tells you the vibe check result. 💫

💜 float SoPointSizeElement::getDefault (void ) [static]

Returns default pointsize setting. the factory setting, the og, the blueprint default. 🌈

and that's the page, bestie!! 🫶 this whole thing is from Coin, Version 3.1.3, and the manual footer was dated SoPointSizeElement(3) — so yeah, go forth and set those pointsizes, you main character. 👑✨💅
