org.scijava.java3d.ModelClip

public class ModelClip
extends Leaf

The ModelClip leaf node defines a set of 6 arbitrary clipping planes in the virtual universe. The planes are specified in the local coordinate system of this node, and may be individually enabled or disabled. This node also specifies a region of influence in which this set of planes is active.

A ModelClip node also contains a list of Group nodes that specifies the hierarchical scope of this ModelClip. If the scope list is empty, then the ModelClip node has universe scope: all nodes within the region of influence are affected by this ModelClip node. If the scope list is non-empty, then only those Leaf nodes under the Group nodes in the scope list are affected by this ModelClip node (subject to the influencing bounds).

If the regions of influence of multiple ModelClip nodes overlap, the Java 3D system will choose a single set of model clip planes for those objects that lie in the intersection. This is done in an implementation-dependent manner, but in general, the ModelClip node that is "closest" to the object is chosen.

The individual planes specify a half-space defined by the equation:

Ax + By + Cz + D <= 0

where A, B, C, D are the parameters that specify the plane. The parameters are passed in the x, y, z, and w fields, respectively, of a Vector4d object. The intersection of the set of half-spaces corresponding to the enabled planes in this ModelClip node defines a region in which points are accepted. Points in this acceptance region will be rendered (subject to view clipping and other attributes). Points that are not in the acceptance region will not be rendered.

Since:

Java 3D 1.2

cloneNode

public Node cloneNode(boolean forceDuplicate)

Used to create a new instance of the node. This routine is called by cloneTree to duplicate the current node.

Overrides:

cloneNode in class Node

Parameters:

forceDuplicate - when set to true, causes the duplicateOnCloneTree flag to be ignored. When false, the value of each node's duplicateOnCloneTree variable determines whether NodeComponent data is duplicated or copied.

See Also:

Node.cloneTree(), Node.cloneNode(boolean), Node.duplicateNode(org.scijava.java3d.Node, boolean), NodeComponent.setDuplicateOnCloneTree(boolean)

updateNodeReferences

public void updateNodeReferences(NodeReferenceTable referenceTable)

Callback used to allow a node to check if any scene graph objects referenced by that node have been duplicated via a call to cloneTree. This method is called by cloneTree after all nodes in the sub-graph have been duplicated. The cloned Leaf node's method will be called and the Leaf node can then look up any object references by using the getNewObjectReference method found in the NodeReferenceTable object. If a match is found, a reference to the corresponding object in the newly cloned sub-graph is returned. If no corresponding reference is found, either a DanglingReferenceException is thrown or a reference to the original object is returned depending on the value of the allowDanglingReferences parameter passed in the cloneTree call.

NOTE: Applications should not call this method directly. It should only be called by the cloneTree method.

Overrides:

updateNodeReferences in class SceneGraphObject

Parameters:

referenceTable - a NodeReferenceTableObject that contains the getNewObjectReference method needed to search for new object instances.
