Constructor.

Overrides default method on SoNode.

These methods can be used by subclasses to generate triangles more easily when those triangles are part of a larger structure, such as a triangle strip, triangle fan, or triangulated polygon, according to the TriangleShape enumerated type.

Implements primitive generation for all shapes.

Compute axis aligned bounding box (AABB) for subclass using information in the given action (which may not necessarily be an SoGetBoundingBoxAction).

Compute object oriented bounding box (OOB) for subclass using information in the given action (which may not necessarily be an SoGetBoundingBoxAction).

Creates and returns an exact copy of the node.

Copies the contents of fc's fields into this object's fields.

Notification at this Field Container is enabled (if flag == true) or disabled (if flag == false).

end shape previously started with beginShape().

Returns true if this object's fields are exactly equal to fc's fields.

Returns the values of the fields of this object in the Open Inventor ASCII file format in the given string.

Returns a list of fields, including the eventIn's and eventOut's.

This method is called by actions to allow the node to provide an "alternate representation" when appropriate (typically depending on the action type).

Implements bounding box method using virtual computeBBox() method.

Returns a the eventIn with the given name.

Returns the eventOut with the given name.

Returns a the field of this object whose name is fieldName.

Returns the name of the given field in the fieldName argument.

Appends references to all of this object's fields to resultList, and returns the number of fields appended.

Returns the name of an instance.

Counts number of primitives produced by this shape.

Gets the current shape Full Scene Antialiasing type.

Implements rendering by rendering each primitive generated by subclass.

Returns true if all of the object's fields have their default values.

This method is used by getBoundingBox action traversal to know if the current node must be traversed or not, ie the bounding should be ignored.

Notification is the process of telling interested objects that this object has changed.

Returns the state of the override flag.

Gets the ScaleViz synchronizable state of this object.

Implements picking along a ray by intersecting the ray with each primitive generated by subclass.

Sets one or more fields in this object to the values specified in the given string, which should be a string in the Open Inventor file format.

Turns the override flag on or off.

set the antialiasing type for this shape.

Sets this to be a ScaleViz synchronizable object.

Sets all fields in this object to their default values.

add a primitive vertex to the shape prevously started with beginShape().

Marks an instance as modified, simulating a change to it.

Whether to ignore this node during bounding box traversal.

Defines two angles (specified in radians) within which particles are randomly emitted.

Specifies a predefined shape from which particles are emitted.

Final particle color.

Controls magnitude of random variation in the final particle color.

Final particle opacity: 0 = fully transparent, 1 = opaque.

Controls magnitude of random variation in the final particle opacity.

Final particle size in world coordinates.

Controls magnitude of random variation in the final particle size.

Indicates the goal number of frames per second for refreshing the particles.

Initial particle color.

Controls magnitude of random variation in the initial particle color.

Initial particle opacity: 0 is fully transparent, 1 is opaque.

Controls magnitude of random variation in the initial particle opacity.

Initial particle size in world coordinates.

Controls magnitude of random variation in the initial particle size.

Particle life span in milliseconds.

Controls magnitude of random variation in the particle life span.

Number of emitted particles.

Controls magnitude of random variation in the number of emitted particles.

Activates/deactivates the particle system.

Specifies the name of the file containing the texture to be applied to the particles.

Specifies if particles are emitted one time (SoParticleAnimation.ONE_EMISSION) or cyclically (SoParticleAnimation.CYCLIC_EMISSION).

Specifies the shape of the particles.

Specifies an in-memory texture used for particles.

Specifies a nonuniform scale factor applied to the predefined shape from which particles are emitted.

Specifies the particle speed in units per second.

Controls magnitude of random variation in the particle speed.

Transparency type used for drawing particles.

Has two meanings depending on the value of particleLife:
