All Superinterfaces:: X3DGeometryNode, X3DNode

All Known Implementing Classes:: Arc2D

public interface Arc2D extends X3DGeometryNode

Arc2D is a line-based geometry node that defines a linear circular arc with center (0,0) in X-Y plane, with angles measured starting at positive x-axis and sweeping towards positive y-axis.

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] Arc2D is a line-based geometry node that defines a linear circular arc with center (0,0) in X-Y plane, with angles measured starting at positive x-axis and sweeping towards positive y-axis. 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. Warning: requires X3D profile='Full' or else include <component name='Geometry2D' level='2'/> Examples: X3D Example Archives, X3D for Web Authors, Chapter 10 Geometry 2D <a href="https://www.web3d.org/x3d/content/examples/X3dForWebAuthors/Chapter10Geometry2D" target="_blank">https://www.web3d.org/x3d/content/examples/X3dForWebAuthors/Chapter10Geometry2D</a> *

Method Details
- getEndAngle
  
  float getEndAngle()
  
  Provide float value unit axis, angle (in radians) within allowed range of (-6.2832,6.2832) from initializeOnly SFFloat field named endAngle.
  
  Tooltip: [0,2pi] Arc extends from startAngle counterclockwise to endAngle, in radians. 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. Hint: radian units for angular measure <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radian" target="_blank">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radian</a> *
  
  Returns:
  
  value of endAngle field
- setEndAngle
  
  Arc2D setEndAngle(float newValue)
  
  Accessor method to assign float value unit axis, angle (in radians) to initializeOnly SFFloat field named endAngle.
  
  Tooltip: [0,2pi] Arc extends from startAngle counterclockwise to endAngle, in radians. Warning: simple-geometry dimensions are initializeOnly and cannot be changed after initial creation, avoiding the need for potentially expensive tessellation at run time.

  Parameters:
  
  newValue - is new value for the endAngle field.
  
  Returns:

- 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/X3Dv4/ISO-IEC19775-1v4-IS//Part01/components/core.html#Metadata" target="_blank">https://www.web3d.org/specifications/X3Dv4/ISO-IEC19775-1v4-IS//Part01/components/core.html#Metadata</a> *
