# class SceneLodGroup

SceneLodGroup is a LOD grouping for the scene graph

# Properties

Property Description
IsFrozen The IsFrozen flag. If set, the node will not be modified by processing modules. (Inherited from SceneNode)
IsModified If set, the node is new, copied, or modified by processing modules. This can be useful to track modifications in the scene graph. (Inherited from SceneNode)
IsVisible The IsVisible flag. If set, the node is visible. (Inherited from SceneNode)
Name The name of the SceneLodGroup object. (Inherited from Object)
NodeGUID The unique id for this node. (Inherited from SceneNode)
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. (Inherited from SceneNode)

# 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. (Inherited from SceneNode)
AddObserver Adds a user-defined observer object to the interface, that will receive events from the interface. (Inherited from Object)
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 calculated, and the method returns false. (Inherited from SceneNode)
CreateChildMesh Creates a SceneMesh node as a child node to this node. (Inherited from SceneNode)
CreateChildPlane Creates a ScenePlane node as a child node to this node. (Inherited from SceneNode)
EvaluateDefaultGlobalTransformation Evaluates the default global transformation of the node, regardless of node animation. (Inherited from SceneNode)
FindNamedChild Finds the first child that has the name. (Inherited from SceneNode)
GetChild Get a pointer to the i:th child of this node. (Inherited from SceneNode)
GetChildCount The number of direct children of this node. (Inherited from SceneNode)
GetClass Get the name of the SceneLodGroup class. (Inherited from Object)
GetInf The inferior (minimum) extent of the node. (Inherited from SceneNode)
GetLodForDistance Returns the child node to use for rendering based on the distance parameter and the current threshold values.
GetParent The parent node of this node. (Inherited from SceneNode)
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. (Inherited from SceneNode)
GetRelativeTransform The relative transformation of this node. (Inherited from SceneNode)
GetScene The scene object of the node. (Inherited from SceneNode)
GetSup The superior (maximum) extent of the node. (Inherited from SceneNode)
GetThresholds The threshold distances associated with the LODs of the LOD group.
HasChild Returns true if the node has the specified child. (Inherited from SceneNode)
IsA Returns true if SceneLodGroup is a or is a descendant of the class named as the type parameter. (Inherited from Object)
IsNull Returns true if the SceneLodGroup object is invalid. (Inherited from Object)
IsSameObjectAs Returns true if the SceneLodGroup object is valid. (Inherited from Object)
NewClone See NewCopy (Inherited from SceneNode)
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. Also note that the clone shares all data pointers with the original nodes, such as geometry data objects. (Inherited from SceneNode)
NonNull Returns true if the SceneLodGroup object is valid. (Inherited from Object)
PrintInfo Prints the content/info of the SceneLodGroup object to the log. (Inherited from Object)
RemoveChild Removes a child from the node. (Inherited from SceneNode)
RemoveChildren Removes all children of this node. (Inherited from SceneNode)
RemoveFromParent Removes this node from its parent. (Inherited from SceneNode)
RemoveObserver Removes a previously added observer object. (Inherited from Object)

# Static methods
