SoProfileCoordinateElement(3)

✨ SoProfileCoordinateElement ✨

okay bestie, gather round, because today we're reading the SoProfileCoordinateElement(3) page from the Coin manual 💖 it's a C++ class, it lives in the Inventor/elements cinematic universe, and honestly? it's giving "the docs said FIXME and we all just moved on." no cap. let's get into it 🫶

💖 Detailed Description 💖

so the SoProfileCoordinateElement class is yet to be documented. literally that's what it says bestie 😭

FIXME: write doc.

we're all just living in the FIXME era, and honestly? relatable.

🎀 Constructor & Destructor Documentation 🎀

SoProfileCoordinateElement::~SoProfileCoordinateElement (void ) [protected], [virtual]

Destructor. it's the goodbye girlie, protected and virtual, as she deserves 💅

---

🦋 Member Function Documentation 🦋

SoType SoProfileCoordinateElement::getClassTypeId (void ) [static]

this static method returns the SoType object associated with objects of this class. the little name-tag for the whole squad ✨

int SoProfileCoordinateElement::getClassStackIndex (void ) [static]

this static method returns the state stack index for the class. your seat number in the state-stack theater, if you will 🎟️

void * SoProfileCoordinateElement::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.

ngl if you're not the library, this one is not your business 💀 it's internal, fr fr.

void SoProfileCoordinateElement::initClass (void ) [static]

initialize relevant common data for all instances, like the type system. the whole class gets its glow-up setup 🫶

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

this function initializes the element type in the given SoState. it is called for the first element of each enabled element type in SoState objects.

Reimplemented from SoReplacedElement.

void SoProfileCoordinateElement::set2 (SoState *const state, SoNode *const node, const int32_t numCoords, const SbVec2f *const coords) [static]

sets the profile coordinates. (the 2D flavor 🌸)

void SoProfileCoordinateElement::set3 (SoState *const state, SoNode *const node, const int32_t numCoords, const SbVec3f *const coords) [static]

sets the profile coordinates. (the 3D flavor 🦋)

const SoProfileCoordinateElement * SoProfileCoordinateElement::getInstance (SoState *const state) [static]

returns the current element. the main character of the moment 👑

int32_t SoProfileCoordinateElement::getNum (void ) const

returns the number of profile coordinates in this element. how many? yes. 🔢

const SbVec2f & SoProfileCoordinateElement::get2 (const int index) const

returns the index'th 2D coordinate.

See also: is2D()

const SbVec3f & SoProfileCoordinateElement::get3 (const int index) const

returns the index'th 3D coordinate.

See also: is2D()

SbBool SoProfileCoordinateElement::is2D (void ) const

returns if this element contains 2D coordinates. the vibe check on dimensionality ✨

SbVec2f SoProfileCoordinateElement::getDefault2 (void ) [static]

returns the default 2D coordinate. the fallback girlie 💅

SbVec3f SoProfileCoordinateElement::getDefault3 (void ) [static]

returns the default 3D coordinate. her three-dimensional sister 🌈

const SbVec2f * SoProfileCoordinateElement::getArrayPtr2 (void ) const

returns a pointer to the 2D coordinates. point me to the coords, bestie 👉✨

const SbVec3f * SoProfileCoordinateElement::getArrayPtr3 (void ) const

returns a pointer to the 3D coordinates. same energy, extra dimension 💜

and that's the whole page bestie!! 🦋✨ this was Version 4.0.10, dated Thu Jun 25 2026 — so go forth, set your set2 and your set3, and remember: if a doc says FIXME, that's not on you, that's on the source code 🫶💖🎀 no cap, periodt.
