SoSlice, SoVolumeRender

public abstract class SoVolumeShape
extends SoLdmShape

Abstract base class for slices, SoVolumeSkin, SoHeightFieldRender, and SoVolumeRender nodes. This class defines common properties for the SoOrthoSlice, SoObliqueSlice, SoFenceSlice, SoVolumeSkin, SoHeightFieldRender and SoVolumeRender nodes.

The interpolation field controls how the texture is interpolated.

The composition field is deprecated and should not be used. Instead specify the composition mode for volume rendering using the SoVolumeRender node.

Field Detail

interpolation

public final SoSFEnum<SoVolumeShape.Interpolations> interpolation

Interpolation mode. . Default is LINEAR. NOTE: In most cases on modern graphics boards, indexed textures are used, so this refers to interpolation of volume data values.

composition

@Deprecated
public final SoSFEnum<SoVolumeShape.Compositions> composition

Deprecated.

As of Open Inventor 9100. See SoVolumeRender.renderMode field.

Specifies color composition mode. . Default is ALPHA_BLENDING.

ALPHA_BLENDING blends the R, G, and B components for each pixel based on the their alpha values.

SUM_INTENSITY draws the sum of the R, G, and B components for each pixel.

MAX_INTENSITY draws the maximum R, G, and B components for each pixel.

MIN_INTENSITY draws the minimum R, G, and B components for each pixel.

Note: In all modes, blending is done against the background color of the scene (or the object behind the volume). This means that, using MIN_INTENSITY for example, if the background color is black then 0,0,0 is already the minimum RGB value and the volume will not be visible. Generally when using MIN_INTENSITY the background color should be set to white (1,1,1) and when using MAX_INTENSITY or SUM_INTENSITY the background color should be set to black (0,0,0). To set the background color see the setBackgroundColor method of the appropriate RenderArea class, for example SoWinRenderArea on Windows.

Since:

Open Inventor 5.0.3

Warning Deprecated since Open Inventor 9100. See SoVolumeRender.renderMode field.
