Member Enumeration Documentation

enum SoAnnoText3Property::FontSizeHint

Font size hint.

Enumerator:

ANNOTATION	2D text maintains its nominal font size from any view angle.
FIT_VECTOR_TEXT	The font size of 2D text changes according to the view angle (it follows the projection on the screen of 3D text).

enum SoAnnoText3Property::RenderPrintType

Render print type.

Enumerator:

RENDER3D_PRINT_VECTOR	Text is rendered in 3D (like SoText3). It is printed as vectors when the Hard Copy Extension (formerly known as PlotMaster) is used.
RENDER3D_PRINT_RASTER	Text is rendered in 3D (like SoText3). It is printed as raster text using PostScript fonts when the Hard Copy Extension is used.
RENDER2D_PRINT_RASTER	Text is rendered in 2D (like SoText2) but can be zoomed because the font size is interpreted in the current units. It is printed as raster text using PostScript fonts when the Hard Copy Extension is used. Note: if this render type is set, the text will not be exported by an SoToPDFAction.

Member Function Documentation

static SoType SoAnnoText3Property::getClassTypeId

(

)

[static]

Returns the type identifier for this class.

Reimplemented from SoNode.

static unsigned int SoAnnoText3Property::getMaxViewingFontSize

(

)

[static]

Gets the maximum font size (in pixels) that can be used when renderPrintType field is equal to RENDER2D_PRINT_RASTER.

virtual SoType SoAnnoText3Property::getTypeId

(

)

const [virtual]

Returns the type identifier for this specific instance.

Reimplemented from SoNode.

static void SoAnnoText3Property::setMaxViewingFontSize

(

unsigned int

size

)

[static]

Sets the maximum font size (in pixels) when renderPrintType field is equal to RENDER2D_PRINT_RASTER.

The maximum font size can also be set using the OIV_MAX_ANNO_RENDER2D_SIZE environment variable.

Member Data Documentation

SoSFEnum SoAnnoText3Property::fontSizeHint

This flag is used when the field renderPrintType is equal to RENDER3D_PRINT_RASTER or RENDER2D_PRINT_RASTER.

It specifies how the font size for 2D text (whether rendered or raster) changes according to the view. Use enum FontSizeHint. Default is FIT_VECTOR_TEXT.

SoSFBool SoAnnoText3Property::isCharOrientedRasterPrint

This flag is used when the field renderPrintType is equal to RENDER3D_PRINT_RASTER or RENDER2D_PRINT_RASTER.

It specifies whether the text should be oriented (or not) for printing when using the Hard Copy Extension. Default is TRUE.

SoSFEnum SoAnnoText3Property::renderPrintType

This flag specifies how annotation text should be rendered (as 3D text or 2D text) and how it should be printed when the Hard Copy Extension is used (as 3D vectors or 2D PostScript raster fonts).

Use enum RenderPrintType. Default is RENDER3D_PRINT_VECTOR.
