SOSCALE(3iv)

📦 version 2.1.6.1, in debian bookworm, debian trixie, ubuntu jammy, ubuntu noble, ubuntu questing, ubuntu resolute, ubuntu stonking

🌸 NAME 🌸

omg hi bestie 💖 welcome to SoScale(3IV) — the manual page, the icon, the moment. This is literally the node representing a 3D geometric scaling. Yes, scaling. In 3D. She's giving transformation energy, and we're obsessed. ✨

🦋 INHERITS FROM 🦋

SoBase > SoFieldContainer > SoNode > SoTransformation > SoScale

That's the family tree, no cap. She inherits from all of them. Periodt. 💅

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

Okay so listen: this node defines a 3D scaling about the origin. That's the whole vibe. But here's the tea: if the components of the scaling vector are not all the same, this produces a non-uniform scale. So like, not all equal = stretched in a specific way. Iconic, honestly. 🫶

🍓 FIELDS 🍓

  • SoSFVec3f scaleFactor — the scaling factors in the x, y, and z dimensions. That's it, that's the field. But bestie, be careful: non-positive values may cause undesirable results. So maybe don't? 😭
⚠️ Non-positive values may cause undesirable results. That's a warning, not a drill. 💀

🔥 METHODS 🔥

  • SoScale() — creates a scale node with default settings. She's fresh out the box, defaults on, ready to scale. ✨
  • static SoType getClassTypeId() — returns type identifier for this class. You need the type ID? She got you. 💅

👑 ACTION BEHAVIOR 👑

  • SoGLRenderAction, SoCallbackAction, SoGetBoundingBoxAction, SoRayPickAction — these accumulate scaling transformation into the current transformation. So like, they stack it up. No cap. 🌈
  • SoGetMatrixAction — returns the matrix corresponding to the scaling. It's giving matrix realness. 💜

🎀 FILE FORMAT/DEFAULTS 🎀

Scale {
  scaleFactor  1 1 1
}

That's the default: scaleFactor 1 1 1. Exactly. Don't touch the spacing, she's sensitive. 🙈

and that's the whole manual page, bestie. The footer says SoScale(3IV)() — that's the source/version/date energy we're leaving you with. Stay scaling, stay iconic. Mwah 💋✨
