Interface TextureCoordinateGenerator

All Superinterfaces:
X3DGeometricPropertyNode, X3DNode, X3DSingleTextureCoordinateNode, X3DTextureCoordinateNode
All Known Implementing Classes:
TextureCoordinateGenerator

public interface TextureCoordinateGenerator extends X3DSingleTextureCoordinateNode
TextureCoordinateGenerator computes 2D (s,t) texture-coordinate points, used by vertex-based geometry nodes (such as IndexedFaceSet or ElevationGrid) to map textures to vertices (and patches to NURBS surfaces).

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: [X3DSingleTextureCoordinateNode] TextureCoordinateGenerator computes 2D (s,t) texture-coordinate points, used by vertex-based geometry nodes (such as IndexedFaceSet or ElevationGrid) to map textures to vertices (and patches to NURBS surfaces). Hint: add Shape and then polgyonal/planar geometry before adding TextureCoordinateGenerator.
