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

(Inherited from SoFieldContainer.)
Public methodEquals
Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object.
(Inherited from Object.)
Public methodFieldsAreEqual

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

(Inherited from SoFieldContainer.)

(Inherited from SoFieldContainer.)
Public methodGetAllFields

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

(Inherited from SoFieldContainer.)
Public methodGetAlternateRep

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

Properties
  NameDescription
Public propertyalpha

Specifies whether or not the alpha component can be written into the frame buffer.

Public propertyblue

Specifies whether or not the blue component can be written into the frame buffer.

Public propertygreen

Specifies whether or not the green component can be written into the frame buffer.

Public propertyIsDisposable
ISafeDisposable interface implementation.
(Inherited from SoDisposable.)
Public propertyred

Specifies whether or not the red component can be written into the frame buffer.

Public propertyUserData
Gets or sets the user data to be contained by the field container.
(Inherited from SoFieldContainer.)
Top
Remarks

Specifies whether individual color components in the frame buffer will be modified during rendering.

The color mask will affect all draw buffers.

"Hidden Line Rendering" is a typical use case where a OIV.Inventor.Nodes.SoColorMask can be useful: faces are first rendered with OIV.Inventor.Nodes.SoColorMask.red, OIV.Inventor.Nodes.SoColorMask.green, OIV.Inventor.Nodes.SoColorMask.blue and OIV.Inventor.Nodes.SoColorMask.alpha masks to false, so that only depth is written. Then, the shape is rendered in wireframe mode, with all masks to true.

To control modifying the depth buffer during rendering see OIV.Inventor.Nodes.SoDepthBuffer.

FILE FORMAT/DEFAULT

ColorMask {
red true
green true
blue true
alpha true
}
