Detailed Description

SbSphereSectionProjector projects a window space point (usually based on the mouse location) onto the section of a sphere that has been sliced by a plane. Two projected points can produce a rotation about the sphere's center. The tolerance slice can be specified as a fraction of the radius of the sphere. The projection point will not extend beyond the sliced portion of the sphere.

Incremental changes (delta rotation) can be computed during interactive sessions. Sphere projectors are typically used to write interactive 3D manipulators and viewers.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ SbSphereSectionProjector() [1/2]

SbSphereSectionProjector::SbSphereSectionProjector	(	float	edgeTol = `.9`,
		bool	orientToEye = `TRUE`
	)

The default view volume is undefined. The default working space is identity (world space). The default sphere to use has a radius of 1.0 and is centered at (0,0,0). The default edge tolerance is .9. The default eye orientation is TRUE.

◆ SbSphereSectionProjector() [2/2]

SbSphereSectionProjector::SbSphereSectionProjector	(	const SbSphere &	sph,
		float	edgeTol = `.9`,
		bool	orientToEye = `TRUE`
	)

The caller is responsible for deleting the copy when done.

Implements SbProjector.

Reimplemented in SbSpherePlaneProjector.

◆ getRadialFactor()

float SbSphereSectionProjector::getRadialFactor ( ) const

inline

When the mouse is dragged off the edge of the sphere, the mouse motion can be classified as either tangential (moving in a circle around the sphere) or radial (moving toward or away from the center). The tangential motion will always map to a rotation around the center, (like the hands of a clock). The radial motion, by default, has no effect. But if you set the radialFactor to be > 0.0, this motion will make the sphere rotate as if the mouse is pulling the top of the sphere out toward the mouse. If radialFactor = 1.0, then pulling has a ‘normal’ feel (that is, the mouse motion causes the same amount of rotation as if you had rotated by hitting the actual surface of the sphere). Default is 0.0
