All Superinterfaces:: X3DBoundedObject, X3DChildNode, X3DGroupingNode, X3DNode

All Known Implementing Classes:: ScreenGroup

public interface ScreenGroup extends X3DGroupingNode

ScreenGroup is a Grouping node that can contain most nodes.

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. ScreenGroup node tooltip: (X3D version 3.2 or later) [X3DGroupingNode,X3DVisibleObject] ScreenGroup is a Grouping node that can contain most nodes. ScreenGroup modifies the screen scale in such a way that one unit is equal to one pixel in both the horizontal and vertical directions.

Hint: insert a Shape node before adding geometry or Appearance.

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