class ScenePlane
ScenePlane is the plane node in the simplygon scene graph that can be used in various processes, for example as a cutting plane in the RemeshingProcessor.
Properties
| Property | Description |
| IsFrozen | The IsFrozen flag. If set, the node will not be modified by processing modules. |
| IsModified | If set, the node is new, copied, or modified by processing modules. This can be useful to track modifications in the scene graph. |
| IsVisible | The IsVisible flag. If set, the node is visible. |
| NodeGUID | The unique id for this node. |
| OriginalName | The OriginalName parameter which can be used to specify the original name of a node, for debugging of merging purposes. This parameter is not copied or cloned, and is not used internally by Simplygon. |
Methods
| Method | Description |
| AddChild | Adds a child node to this node. If the child is already a child of another node, it is removed from this node. |
| CalculateExtents | Calculates the axis-aligned bounding box of the node and all its children. If the node tree contains no geometric data, or all data is hidden, the bounding box is not calcluated, and the method returns false. |
| CreateChildMesh | Creates a SceneMesh node as a child node to this node. |
| CreateChildPlane | Creates a ScenePlane node as a child node to this node. |
| EvaluateDefaultGlobalTransformation | Evaluates the default global transformation of the node, regardless of node animation. |
| FindNamedChild | Finds the first child that has the name. |
| GetChild | Get a pointer to the i:th child of this node. |
| GetChildCount | The number of direct children of this node. |
| GetClass | Get the name of the ScenePlane class. |
| GetInf | The inferior (minimum) extent of the node. |
| GetNormal | The normal of the plane. |
| GetParent | The parent node of this node. |
| GetPath | The path to this node in the scene. Please note that only paths where each node has a name can be used to get to the node using the path. |
| GetPosition | The position (translation) of the plane. |
| GetRelativeTransform | The relative transformation of this node. |
| GetScene | The scene object of the node. |
| GetSup | The superior (maximum) extent of the node. |
| HasChild | Returns true if the node has the specified child. |
| IsA | Returns true if ScenePlane is a or is a descendant of the class named as the type parameter. |
| IsNull | Returns true if the ScenePlane object is invalid. |
| NewClone | Clones this node tree (this node and all the descendants of this node) and returns the cloned top node. Please note that the copy is not added to any scene, and can be added anywhere. Also note that the clone shares all data pointers with the original nodes, such as geometry data objects. |
| NewCopy | Deep copies this node tree (this node and all the descendants of this node) and returns the copy top node. Please note that the copy is not added to any scene, and can be added anywhere. |
| RemoveChild | Removes a child from the node. |
| RemoveChildren | Removes all children of this node. |
| RemoveFromParent | Removes this node from its parent. |
| SetNormal | The normal of the plane. |
| SetPosition | The position (translation) of the plane. |
Static methods
| Method | Description |
| IsClassA | Returns true if the class is a or is a descendant of the class named as the type parameter. |
