Class ValuePortrayal3D

All Implemented Interfaces:
Portrayal, Portrayal3D

public class ValuePortrayal3D extends Shape3DPortrayal3D
ValuePortrayal3D defines a cube or square whose color and transparency can be changed, and is really intended solely for use in ValueGridPortrayal3D. Note that although ValuePortrayal3D is a subclass of Shape3DPortrayal3D, it does not include a Transform3D and so cannot be scaled or rotated. This is mostly for speed reasons.

ValuePortrayal3D has settable polygon attributes: so you can have it display with faces, as a wireframe, or as corner dots (just change the desired value in the options panel of the Display3D when running).

    • ValuePortrayal3D

      public ValuePortrayal3D()
      Creates a ValuePortrayal3D with a cube shape.

  • Method Details

    • setTransform

      public boolean setTransform(javax.media.j3d.TransformGroup j3dModel, javax.media.j3d.Transform3D transform)
      Returns false and does not set the transform (there's nothing to set).
      Overrides:
      setTransform in class PrimitivePortrayal3D
    • getShape

      protected javax.media.j3d.Shape3D getShape(javax.media.j3d.TransformGroup j3dModel, int shapeNumber)
      Description copied from class: PrimitivePortrayal3D
      Returns the shape by the given index. Cylinder has three shapes (BODY=0, TOP=1, BOTTOM=2), while Cone has two shapes (BODY=0, CAP=1) and Sphere has a single shape (BODY=0). Useful for use in for-loops in combination with numShapes().
      Overrides:
      getShape in class Shape3DPortrayal3D
    • polygonAttributes

      public javax.media.j3d.PolygonAttributes polygonAttributes()
      Description copied from interface: Portrayal3D
      Provides a PolygonAttributes which can be modified to change the underlying model's attributes (culling, vertex versus point versus fill). This is an optional function: you are free to return null
      Specified by:
      polygonAttributes in interface Portrayal3D
      Overrides:
      polygonAttributes in class SimplePortrayal3D
    • getModel

      public javax.media.j3d.TransformGroup getModel(Object obj, javax.media.j3d.TransformGroup j3dModel)
      Description copied from class: PrimitivePortrayal3D
      We suggest that if you wish to override this to change the appearance or scale or transform of the underlying model, do the changes first and THEN call super.getModel(obj, j3dModel). Be sure to also set the appearance/scale/transform of the model the first time (that is, when j3dModel is null) as well as when something interesting changes necessitating an update.
      Specified by:
      getModel in interface Portrayal3D
      Overrides:
      getModel in class PrimitivePortrayal3D
    • getInspector

      public Inspector getInspector(LocationWrapper wrapper, GUIState state)
      Description copied from interface: Portrayal
      Provide an inspector for an object.
      Specified by:
      getInspector in interface Portrayal
      Overrides:
      getInspector in class SimplePortrayal3D
    • getName

      public String getName(LocationWrapper wrapper)
      Description copied from interface: Portrayal
      Returns a static, one-line name for the given object that is useful for a human to distinguish it from other objects. A simple default would be just to return "" + object.
      Specified by:
      getName in interface Portrayal
      Overrides:
      getName in class SimplePortrayal3D
