🎀 SoNormalElement(3) 🎀

okay bestie, welcome to the Coin manual, section 3, and today's main character is SoNormalElement. she's an element class. she's mysterious. she is, and I cannot stress this enough, yet to be documented. we ride anyway. 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

SoNormalElement — the SoNormalElement class is yet to be documented. that's literally the whole name section, no notes, we move.

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <Inventor/elements/SoNormalElement.h>

Inherits SoReplacedElement.

Inherited by SoGLNormalElement.

💜 Detailed Description 💜

The SoNormalElement class is yet to be documented.

FIXME: write doc.

like... the docs are not doc-ing. we simply do not have them. periodt. 💅

🎀 Constructor & Destructor Documentation 🎀

SoNormalElement::~SoNormalElement () [protected], [virtual]

Destructor. she's leaving the group chat. bye bestie 🦋

🔥 Member Function Documentation 🔥

SoType SoNormalElement::getClassTypeId (void ) [static]

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

int SoNormalElement::getClassStackIndex (void ) [static]

This static method returns the state stack index for the class.

void * SoNormalElement::createInstance (void ) [static]

This API member is considered internal to the library, as it is not likely to be of interest to the application programmer.

Creates a new instance of the class type corresponding to the SoType object.

void SoNormalElement::initClass (void ) [static]

Initialize relevant common data for all instances, like the type system.

void SoNormalElement::init (SoState * state) [virtual]

Initializes the element to its default value. The default values are: for normals NULL, for numNormals 0, and for the unitLength flag FALSE.

Reimplemented from SoReplacedElement.

Reimplemented in SoGLNormalElement.

const SbVec3f * SoNormalElement::getArrayPtr (void ) const

Returns a pointer to the normal array. This method is not part of the OIV API.

ngl bestie, "not part of the OIV API" is the code equivalent of "we're not official, we're just vibing." 🙈

and that's the whole page, bestie!! 🫶 no cap, that's Version 4.0.10, dated Thu Jun 25 2026 00:00:00, closing out SoNormalElement(3). go read it again, you know you want to. slay, stay hydrated, and may your normals always be unit length. 🌈👑⭐
