SOTEXTURECOORDINATEBINDING(3iv)

💖 SoTextureCoordinateBinding 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the manual page for SoTextureCoordinateBinding(3IV) — yes the whole title is part of the vibe, it's the node that specifies how texture coordinates are bound to shapes. we're in the 3IV manual section, iykyk. 🎀

🌸 INHERITS FROM 🌸

SoBase > SoFieldContainer > SoNode > SoTextureCoordinateBinding

so yeah she's deep in the family tree, four generations of iconic ancestry, and she inherited everything. periodt. 👑

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <Inventor/nodes/SoTextureCoordinateBinding.h>

🦋 enum Binding 🦋

• SoTextureCoordinateBinding::PER_VERTEX — current texture coordinates are applied sequentially to vertices of shape
• SoTextureCoordinateBinding::PER_VERTEX_INDEXED — current texture coordinates are indexed per vertex

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

okay so here's the tea ☕ — this node specifies how the current texture coordinates are bound to vertex-based shapes that follow in the scene graph.

and the DEFAULT binding? it causes each shape to define its own default coordinates. those default coordinates typically cause a texture to be mapped across the whole surface of a shape. no cap. 🫶

---

🎀 FIELDS 🎀

• SoSFEnum value — specifies how to bind texture coordinates to shapes. that's it, that's the whole job, and she does it flawlessly. 💅

---

🧚 METHODS 🧚

• SoTextureCoordinateBinding() — creates a texture coordinate binding node with default settings. brand new, fresh out the box, defaults intact. ✨
• static SoType getClassTypeId() — returns type identifier for this class. the ID check, the vibe check, same energy. 🔥

---

⭐ ACTION BEHAVIOR ⭐

SoGLRenderAction, SoCallbackAction

sets the current texture coordinate binding type. slay, that's literally the whole action. 👑

---

🌸 FILE FORMAT/DEFAULTS 🌸

TextureCoordinateBinding {
    value  PER_VERTEX_INDEXED
}

bestie notice how the default in the file format is PER_VERTEX_INDEXED 👀 that's the one she ships with, don't come for me, that's just what the manpage says.
