# class GeometryCullingSettings

Settings for volumetric triangle culling functionality. These settings control the clipping planes and geometries that are used for triangle culling the output of Simplygon scene processors.

# Properties

Property Description
ClippingGeometrySelectionSetID Which SelectionSet containing geometries will be used for clipping. Set name is prioritized over id if both are set.
ClippingGeometrySelectionSetName Which SelectionSet containing geometries will be used for clipping. Set name is prioritized over id if both are set.
ClippingPlaneSelectionSetID Which SelectionSet containing sceneplanes will be used for clipping. Set name is prioritized over id if both are set.
ClippingPlaneSelectionSetName Which SelectionSet containing sceneplanes will be used for clipping. Set name is prioritized over id if both are set.
UseClippingGeometry If set, the geometries defined in the matching selection set will be used to clip the process geometry. What side of the geometry that will be culled is determined by the triangle facing, so make sure your winding is correct and that triangles point "up" toward the space you want to keep. Inconsistent triangle winding or meshes that do not have a clear local inside and outside will cause inconsistent results when used as clipping geometries.
UseClippingPlanes If true the ScenePlanes in the input scene (or the planes selected by the selection set settings) will be used to clip the mesh.

# Methods

Method Description
GetClass Get the name of the GeometryCullingSettings class.
GetErrorString Returns a string describing the error that was found the last time ValidateSettings was performed.
IsA Returns true if GeometryCullingSettings is a or is a descendant of the class named as the type parameter.
IsNull Returns true if the GeometryCullingSettings object is invalid.
ValidateSettings Validates the current settings values.

# Static methods

Method Description
IsClassA Returns true if the class is a or is a descendant of the class named as the type parameter.
SafeCast SafeCast makes sure the input object is of a class that can be cast into spGeometryCullingSettings, and if this is the case, returns the object cast into spGeometryCullingSettings.

# Properties details

# ClippingGeometrySelectionSetID

Which SelectionSet containing geometries will be used for clipping. Set name is prioritized over id if both are set.

    # ClippingGeometrySelectionSetName

    Which SelectionSet containing geometries will be used for clipping. Set name is prioritized over id if both are set.

      # ClippingPlaneSelectionSetID

      Which SelectionSet containing sceneplanes will be used for clipping. Set name is prioritized over id if both are set.

        # ClippingPlaneSelectionSetName

        Which SelectionSet containing sceneplanes will be used for clipping. Set name is prioritized over id if both are set.

          # UseClippingGeometry

          If set, the geometries defined in the matching selection set will be used to clip the process geometry. What side of the geometry that will be culled is determined by the triangle facing, so make sure your winding is correct and that triangles point "up" toward the space you want to keep. Inconsistent triangle winding or meshes that do not have a clear local inside and outside will cause inconsistent results when used as clipping geometries.

            # UseClippingPlanes

            If true the ScenePlanes in the input scene (or the planes selected by the selection set settings) will be used to clip the mesh.

              # Methods details

              # GetClass

              Get the name of the GeometryCullingSettings class.

                # GetErrorString

                Returns a string describing the error that was found the last time ValidateSettings was performed.

                  # IsA

                  Returns true if GeometryCullingSettings is a or is a descendant of the class named as the type parameter.

                    # IsNull

                    Returns true if the GeometryCullingSettings object is invalid.

                      # ValidateSettings

                      Validates the current settings values.

                        # Static methods details

                        # IsClassA

                        Returns true if the class is a or is a descendant of the class named as the type parameter.

                          # SafeCast

                          SafeCast makes sure the input object is of a class that can be cast into spGeometryCullingSettings, and if this is the case, returns the object cast into spGeometryCullingSettings.
