  • Method Details

    • getCcw

      boolean getCcw()
      Provide boolean value from initializeOnly SFBool field named ccw.

      Tooltip: ccw defines clockwise/counterclockwise ordering of vertex coordinates, which in turn defines front/back orientation of polygon normals according to Right-Hand Rule (RHR).
      • Hint: a good debugging technique for problematic polygons is to try changing the value of ccw, which can reverse solid effects (single-sided backface culling) and normal-vector direction.
      • Warning: consistent and correct ordering of left-handed or right-handed point sequences is important throughout the coord array of point values.
      • Hint: clockwise https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clockwise
      Returns:
      value of ccw field

    • setCcw

      NurbsSweptSurface setCcw​(boolean newValue)
      Accessor method to assign boolean value to initializeOnly SFBool field named ccw.

      Tooltip: ccw defines clockwise/counterclockwise ordering of vertex coordinates, which in turn defines front/back orientation of polygon normals according to Right-Hand Rule (RHR).
      • Hint: a good debugging technique for problematic polygons is to try changing the value of ccw, which can reverse solid effects (single-sided backface culling) and normal-vector direction.
      • Warning: consistent and correct ordering of left-handed or right-handed point sequences is important throughout the coord array of point values.

      Parameters:
      newValue - is new value for the ccw field.
      Returns:
      NurbsSweptSurface - namely this same object to allow sequential method pipelining (i.e. consecutive method invocations on the same object).

    • getSolid

      boolean getSolid()
      Provide boolean value from initializeOnly SFBool field named solid.

      Tooltip: Setting solid true means draw only one side of polygons (backface culling on), setting solid false means draw both sides of polygons (backface culling off).
      • Hint: mnemonic "this geometry is solid like a brick" (you don't render the inside of a brick).
      • Warning: default value true can completely hide geometry if viewed from wrong side!
      • Hint: if in doubt, use solid='false' for maximum visibility.
      Returns:
      value of solid field

    • setSolid

      NurbsSweptSurface setSolid​(boolean newValue)
      Accessor method to assign boolean value to initializeOnly SFBool field named solid.

      • Warning: default value true can completely hide geometry if viewed from wrong side!
      • Hint: if in doubt, use solid='false' for maximum visibility.
      Parameters:
