Interface Polyline2D

All Superinterfaces:
X3DGeometryNode, X3DNode
All Known Implementing Classes:
Polyline2D
public interface Polyline2D extends X3DGeometryNode
Polyline2D is a geometry node that defines a connected set of vertices in a contiguous set of line segments in X-Y plane.

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: [X3DGeometryNode] Polyline2D is a geometry node that defines a connected set of vertices in a contiguous set of line segments in X-Y plane. Hint: Material emissiveColor in corresponding Appearance is used for rendering lines. Warning: lines are not lit, are not texture-mapped, and do not participate in collision detection. Warning: use a different Material emissiveColor than the Background color, otherwise geometry is invisible. Hint: adding LineProperties to the corresponding Appearance node can modify the rendering style of these lines. Hint: insert a Shape node before adding geometry or Appearance.

  • Method Summary

    Modifier and Type
    Method
    Description
    float[]
    getLineSegments()
    Provide array of 2-tuple float results from initializeOnly MFVec2f field named lineSegments.
    X3DMetadataObject
    getMetadata()
    Provide org.web3d.x3d.sai.Core.X3DMetadataObject instance (using a properly typed node) from inputOutput SFNode field metadata.
    Polyline2D
    setLineSegments(float[] newValue)
    Accessor method to assign 2-tuple float array to initializeOnly MFVec2f field named lineSegments.
    Polyline2D

  • Method Details

    • getLineSegments

      float[] getLineSegments()
      Provide array of 2-tuple float results from initializeOnly MFVec2f field named lineSegments.

      Tooltip: Coordinates of vertices connected into contiguous Polyline2D. Warning: simple-geometry dimensions are initializeOnly and cannot be changed after initial creation, avoiding the need for potentially expensive tessellation at run time. Hint: for size animation, modify the scale of a parent/ancestor Transform node instead. *
      Returns:
      value of lineSegments field

    • setLineSegments

      Polyline2D setLineSegments(float[] newValue)
      Accessor method to assign 2-tuple float array to initializeOnly MFVec2f field named lineSegments.

      Tooltip: Coordinates of vertices connected into contiguous Polyline2D. Warning: simple-geometry dimensions are initializeOnly and cannot be changed after initial creation, avoiding the need for potentially expensive tessellation at run time. Hint: for size animation, modify the scale of a parent/ancestor Transform node instead. *
      Parameters:
      newValue - is new value for the lineSegments field.
      Returns:
      Polyline2D - namely this same object to allow sequential method pipelining (i.e. consecutive method invocations on the same object).

    • getMetadata

      X3DMetadataObject getMetadata()
      Provide org.web3d.x3d.sai.Core.X3DMetadataObject instance (using a properly typed node) from inputOutput SFNode field metadata.

      Tooltip: [X3DMetadataObject] Information about this node can be contained in a MetadataBoolean, MetadataDouble, MetadataFloat, MetadataInteger, MetadataString or MetadataSet node. Hint: X3D Architecture 7.2.4 Metadata <a href="https://www.web3d.org/specifications/X3Dv4Draft/ISO-IEC19775-1v4-IS.proof//Part01/components/core.html#Metadata" target="_blank">https://www.web3d.org/specifications/X3Dv4Draft/ISO-IEC19775-1v4-IS.proof//Part01/components/core.html#Metadata</a> *
