SoMarkerListPointSet

InventorModule

author	MeVis Medical Solutions AG
package	MeVisLab/Standard
dll	SoRenderers
definition	SoRenderers.def

Purpose

The SoMarkerListPointSet renders an XMarkerList as points, using a SoPointSet. It can also provide per-marker radii, based on the direction vector contained in each marker.

Usage

This module can either be used to render markers as points or be combined with the SoPointSpriteRenderer to render a large number of markers as spheres using point sprites.

Input Fields

inMarkers

name: inMarkers, type: XMarkerList(MLBase)

The input marker list.

For accessing this object via scripting see the Scripting Reference: MLXMarkerListWrapper.

inStylePalette

name: inStylePalette, type: StylePalette(MLBase)

The optional style palette.

Parameter Fields

Field Index

boundingBoxCaching: Enum

Color Mode: Enum

pickCulling: Enum

renderCaching: Enum

renderCulling: Enum

Sphere Radius Vertex Attribute: Bool

Timepoint to Render (-1=all): Integer

Visible Fields

Color Mode

name: colorMode, type: Enum, default: COLOR_BY_TYPE

Defines how the point color is obtained, including using the input style palette.

Values:

Title	Name	Description
Type	COLOR_BY_TYPE	Color by type of marker.
Index	COLOR_BY_INDEX	Color by index.
Id	COLOR_BY_ID	Color by id.

Sphere Radius Vertex Attribute

name: sphereRadiusVertexAttribute, type: Bool, default: FALSE

If checked, the radius of each marker is provided by a module SoVertexAttribute1f called “sphereRadius”.

This can be used in shaders, e.g., the SoPointSpriteRenderer can make use of it.

Timepoint to Render (-1=all)

name: timepointToRender, type: Integer, default: -1

Sets the time point of the markers to be rendered.

If this field is set to -1, all markers are rendered. If a value >=0 is set, only the markers with the corresponding time point value are rendered.
