Class NurbsSet

All Implemented Interfaces:
X3DChildNode, X3DNode, X3DBoundedObject, NurbsSet

public class NurbsSet extends X3DConcreteNode implements NurbsSet
NurbsSet collects a set of NurbsSurface nodes into a common group and treats NurbsSurface set as a unit during tessellation, thereby enforcing tessellation continuity along borders.

Warning: this is an abstract interface that cannot be instantiated as a concrete object. Java programmers typically only need to use concrete objects provided by the org.web3d.x3d.jsail classes. X3D node tooltip: [X3DChildNode,X3DBoundedObject] NurbsSet collects a set of NurbsSurface nodes into a common group and treats NurbsSurface set as a unit during tessellation, thereby enforcing tessellation continuity along borders. Warning: geometry represented in children of this node shall not be directly rendered. It is an informational node only. Warning: Surfaces not represented elsewhere in transformation hierarchy shall not be rendered. Hint: USE nodes for geometry ensure renderable versions occur elsewhere in the model. The bounds information is provided for optimization purposes only. A browser may choose to use this information about when to apply trimming or smooth tessellation between patches based on the bounds information. *


Package hint: This org.web3d.x3d.jsail concrete class is used for implementing a standalone X3D object as a Plain Old Java Object (POJO). If you are writing Java code for use inside an X3D Script node, compile separate code using only the org.web3d.x3d.sai package instead.
