💖 SoProfileCoordinate2 — profile coordinate node 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the SoProfileCoordinate2 page from the 3IV manual ✨ this one's a lil baby node that just holds coordinates, but she's important, trust. no cap.

that's a lot of inherited methods and honestly? she earned them 💅

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so here's the tea, bestie: this node defines a set of 2D coordinates that get used by the SoProfile nodes that come after it. that's it. that's the whole job.

and no, she does not produce a visible result during rendering. don't come for her. she's not here to be seen, she's here to work 😤

what she actually does is replace the current profile coordinates in the traversal state so that subsequent nodes can use them. it's giving "silent support system" and honestly we love that for her 🫶

---

🎀 FIELDS 🎀

• SoMFVec2f point — the 2D profile coordinate points. that's the whole field list, she's a minimalist ✨

---

💅 METHODS 💅

• SoProfileCoordinate2() — creates a profile coordinate node with default settings. brand new baby, fresh out the box 🌸
• static SoType getClassTypeId() — returns the type identifier for this class. it's her ID card, her little name tag, iconic 🎀

---

🌈 ACTION BEHAVIOR 🌈

SoGLRenderAction, SoCallbackAction, SoGetBoundingBoxAction, SoRayPickAction

sets profile coordinates in the current traversal state. every single one of those actions, same vibe, same job, she's consistent and we respect it 💜

---

⭐ FILE FORMAT/DEFAULTS ⭐

ProfileCoordinate2 {
   point  0 0
}

default is literally 0 0 — starting from the origin, humble beginnings, love that journey for her 😭

• SoProfileCoordinate3

(the 3D cousin stays booked and busy, iykyk)

k bye bestie, go forth and coordinate those profiles 💖✨

and that's the whole page, fr fr — this was SoProfileCoordinate2(3IV)() from the 3IV manual. no date listed on this one, so we're keeping it timeless, like all the greats 👑💅
