Detailed Description

ClippingPlane manipulation class. The SClippingPlane creation can be done by calling the static functions:
.

New() to create your own empty SPlane.
New() to copy an existing SPlane.
New() to create a new SPlane by defining its center, normal, X axis, length and width.

var center = SPoint.New(1, 1, 2);

var normal = SVector.New(0, 1, 0);

var dirX = SVector.New(0, 0, 1);

var length = 25;

var width = 12;

var emptySPlane = SPlane.New();

var mySPlane = SPlane.New(center, normal, dirX, length, width);

var mySPlaneCopy = SPlane.New(mySPlane);

Member Function Documentation

◆ All

static Array SClippingPlane::All ( Number VisCrit )

inlinestaticslot

To get all the SComp in the document.

Return values

Array all the SClippingPlane contained in the document

Parameters

[in]

VisCrit

Visible selection criteria

0 Keep if not visible
1 Keep if visible
2 (Default) Indifferent

◆ FromClick

static Array SClippingPlane::FromClick ( )

inlinestaticslot

Displays a dialog box to select an SComp in the scene.

Warning: This function will break the script, and wait for user interaction.

Return values

Array.ErrorCode	The error code 0: Success, the SComp is selected. 1: Nothing is selected. 2: The ESCape key has been pressed
Array.ClippingPlane	the SClippingPlane selected

◆ FromName

static Array SClippingPlane::FromName ( String Name )

inlinestaticslot

Search all the component with the given name.

Return values

Array all the SClippingPlane with the given name

◆ FromSel

static Array SClippingPlane::FromSel ( )

staticslot

To get all the selected SComp.

Return values

Array all the SClippingPlane selected

◆ GetCurvilinearAbscissa

Number SClippingPlane::GetCurvilinearAbscissa ( )

inlineslot

Get the current curvilinear abscissa of the plane along its path.

Note: If the clipping doesn't have a path, this value means nothing.

◆ GetDepth

Number SClippingPlane::GetDepth ( )

inlineslot

Get the depth of the clipping plane.

Returns

Return values

0	No depth, it's a single clipping plane
>0	It's a Number clipping plane and the distance between the 2 planes is the depth.

◆ GetDirection

Array SClippingPlane::GetDirection ( )

slot

Get the directions of the clipping plane.

Return values

Array.Normal	The normal of the plane
Array.XDir	The X direction to orient the plane. can be (0,0,0)

◆ GetPath

Array SClippingPlane::GetPath ( )

slot

Get the path of the clipping plane as a polyline.

◆ GetPosition

SPoint SClippingPlane::GetPosition ( )

inlineslot

Set the center of the clipping plane.

Note: The center may repositioned to be at the middle of the bounding box of the clipped objects.

Return values

true	If the center has been changed
false	If the center didn't change because of step constraint or distance from last position null.

◆ GetStep

Number SClippingPlane::GetStep ( )

inlineslot

Get the step of the clipping plane.

Returns

Return values

0	No step, clipping plane movements using the mouse wheel are computed automatically
>0	The fixed distance used to move the clipping plane using the mouse wheel

◆ HasPath

Boolean SClippingPlane::HasPath ( )

inlineslot

Does the clipping have a path?

◆ Move

SMatrix SClippingPlane::Move ( Number iDistance )

inlineslot

Move the clipping plane to a certain distance along its normal or its path if defined.

Note

If a step constraint is defined (> 0), then the movement is restrain to the nearest multiple of the step (0 is accepted): For example: let's say the step/// - Move(2.5) -> will not move (round to 0)

Move(17) -> move a distance of 15 (rounded)

Returns

The distance effectively traveled which may differ from the input 'iDistance' in 2 cases:

A step constraint is defined (see rules above).
The clipping plane has a path which has an beginning and an end.

◆ MoveInDirectionOf

SMatrix SClippingPlane::MoveInDirectionOf	(	SPoint	iTargetPoint,
		Boolean	iReprojectPoint
	)

inlineslot

Move the clipping plane in direction of a given point along its normal or its path if defined.

Parameters

[in]	iTargetPoint	The target point
[in]	iReprojectPoint	Should we re-project 'iTargetPoint' onto the clipping plane's normal or path? CAUTION: set this boolean to 'false' only 'iTargetPoint' is already onto the clipping plane's normal or path.
