SoFaceSet¶

InventorModule¶

genre	`InventorNodesAutomatic`
author	`Silicon Graphics Inc`
package	`MeVisLab/Standard`
definition	inventor.def

Purpose¶

Renders a set of faces. Each face consists of 3 or more vertices, taken in order from the current coordinates. The Start Index field gives the starting coordinate index for the first face. The number of vertices in each face is determined by successive entries in the Num Vertices field.

Details¶

For optimized rendering, the faces should be given in this order: triangles, quads, other polygons.

Input Fields¶

vertexProperty¶

name: vertexProperty, type: SoNode¶: Optional SoVertexProperty input that can be used to provide vertex data instead of using the Open Inventor state.

Output Fields¶

self¶

name: self, type: SoNode¶: Node to be placed into Inventor scene.

Parameter Fields¶

Visible Fields¶

Start Index¶

name: startIndex, type: Integer, default: 0¶: The start index of the first face to be rendered.

Num Vertices¶

name: numVertices, type: IntegerList, default: -1¶: A list of vertices for each face. E.g. [3,3,4,4,5] will render 2 triangles, 2 quads and one polygon with 5 points.

Hidden Fields¶

sendAdjacency¶

name: sendAdjacency, type: Bool, default: FALSE¶
