Interface CoordinateDouble

All Superinterfaces:

X3DCoordinateNode, X3DGeometricPropertyNode, X3DNode

All Known Implementing Classes:

CoordinateDoubleObject

public interface CoordinateDouble
extends X3DCoordinateNode

Abstract node interface, defined by X3D specification to support X3D Java interoperability.

X3D node tooltip: [X3DCoordinateNode] CoordinateDouble builds geometry by defining a set of 3D coordinate (triplet) point values. CoordinateDouble is used by IndexedFaceSet, IndexedLineSet, LineSet, PointSet, Triangle* and IndexedTriangle* nodes. CoordinateDouble is also used by NurbsPositionInterpolator and NurbsOrientationInterpolator.

• Warning: CoordinateDouble requires NURBS component level 1, otherwise Full profile.

Package hint: This interface is defined by the X3D Java Language Binding Specification for the Scene Authoring Interface (SAI).

Method Detail

getMetadata

X3DMetadataObject getMetadata()

Provide X3DMetadataObject instance (using a properly typed node) from inputOutput SFNode field metadata.

Specified by:

getMetadata in interface X3DCoordinateNode

Specified by:

getMetadata in interface X3DGeometricPropertyNode

Specified by:

getMetadata in interface X3DNode

Returns:

value of metadata field

X3D Scene Authoring Hints: Metadata Nodes

setMetadata

CoordinateDouble setMetadata(X3DMetadataObject newValue)

Assign X3DMetadataObject instance (using a properly typed node) to inputOutput SFNode field metadata.

Specified by:

setMetadata in interface X3DCoordinateNode

Specified by:

setMetadata in interface X3DGeometricPropertyNode

Specified by:

setMetadata in interface X3DNode

Parameters:

newValue - is new value for the metadata field.

Returns:

CoordinateDouble - namely this same object to allow sequential method pipelining (i.e. consecutive method invocations on the same object).

X3D Scene Authoring Hints: Metadata Nodes

getPoint

double[] getPoint()

Provide array of 3-tuple double results from inputOutput MFVec3d field named point.

Tooltip: point contains a set of 3D coordinate (triplet) point values. *

Returns:

value of point field

setPoint

CoordinateDouble setPoint(double[] newValue)

Assign 3-tuple double array to inputOutput MFVec3d field named point.

Tooltip: point contains a set of 3D coordinate (triplet) point values.

Parameters:

newValue - is new value for the point field.

Returns:

CoordinateDouble - namely this same object to allow sequential method pipelining (i.e. consecutive method invocations on the same object).

setDEF

CoordinateDouble setDEF(java.lang.String newValue)

Assign String value to inputOutput SFString field named DEF.

Tooltip: DEF defines a unique ID name for this node, referenceable by other nodes. Hint: descriptive DEF names improve clarity and help document a model. Hint: well-defined names can simplify design and debugging through improved author understanding. Hint: X3D Scene Authoring Hints, Naming Conventions http://www.web3d.org/x3d/content/examples/X3dSceneAuthoringHints.html#NamingConventions

Note that setting the DEF value clears the USE value.

Specified by:

setDEF in interface X3DCoordinateNode

Specified by:

setDEF in interface X3DGeometricPropertyNode

Specified by:

setDEF in interface X3DNode

Parameters:

newValue - is new value for the DEF field.

Returns:

CoordinateDouble - namely this same object to allow sequential method pipelining (i.e. consecutive method invocations on the same object).

setUSE

CoordinateDouble setUSE(java.lang.String newValue)

Assign String value to inputOutput SFString field named USE.

Tooltip: USE means reuse an already DEF-ed node ID, excluding all child nodes and all other attributes (except for containerField, which can have a different value). Hint: USE references to previously defined DEF geometry (instead of duplicating nodes) can improve performance. Warning: do NOT include any child nodes, a DEF attribute, or any other attribute values (except for containerField) when defining a USE attribute. Warning: each USE value must match a corresponding DEF value that is defined earlier in the scene.

Note: each USE node is still an independent object, with the USE value matching the DEF value in the preceding object.

Warning: invoking the setUSE() method on this node resets all other fields to their default values (except for containerField) and also releases all child nodes.

Warning: no other operations can be performed to modify a USE node other than setting an alternate containerField value.

Specified by:

setUSE in interface X3DCoordinateNode

Specified by:

setUSE in interface X3DGeometricPropertyNode

Specified by:

setUSE in interface X3DNode

Parameters:

newValue - is new value for the USE field.

Returns:

CoordinateDouble - namely this same object to allow sequential method pipelining (i.e. consecutive method invocations on the same object).

setCssClass

CoordinateDouble setCssClass(java.lang.String newValue)

Assign String value to inputOutput SFString field named class.

Tooltip: The class attribute is a space-separated list of classes, reserved for use by CSS cascading stylesheets. Warning: currently the class attribute is only supported in XML encoding of X3D scenes. Hint: W3C Cascading Style Sheets https://www.w3.org/Style/CSS

Specified by:

setCssClass in interface X3DCoordinateNode

Specified by:

setCssClass in interface X3DGeometricPropertyNode

Specified by:

setCssClass in interface X3DNode

Parameters:

newValue - is new value for the class field.

Returns:

CoordinateDouble - namely this same object to allow sequential method pipelining (i.e. consecutive method invocations on the same object).
