SyntaxThe SoNurbsGroup type exposes the following members.
Constructors| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | SoNurbsGroup | Creates an empty NurbsGroup node. |
Methods| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| AddChild | Adds a child as last one in group. |
| AffectsState | Returns true if a node has an effect on the state during traversal. |
| Callback | (Overrides SoGroupCallback(SoCallbackAction).) |
| Copy | Calls Copy(false). (Inherited from SoNode.) |
| Copy(Boolean) | Creates and returns an exact copy of the node. |
| CopyFieldValues(SoFieldContainer) | Calls CopyFieldValues(fc, false). (Inherited from SoFieldContainer.) |
| CopyFieldValues(SoFieldContainer, Boolean) | Copies the contents of fc's fields into this object's fields. |
| Dispose |
Releases all resources used by SoDisposable.
(Inherited from SoDisposable.) |
| Distribute | (Inherited from SoNode.) |
| DoAction | (Inherited from SoGroup.) |
| EnableNotify | Notification at this Field Container is enabled (if flag == true) or disabled (if flag == false). |
| Equals | Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
| FieldsAreEqual | Returns true if this object's fields are exactly equal to fc's fields. |
| FindChild | Finds index of given child within group. |
| Get | Returns the values of the fields of this object in the Open Inventor ASCII file format in the given string. |
| GetAllFields | Returns a list of fields, including the eventIn's and eventOut's. |
| GetAlternateRep | This method is called by actions to allow the node to provide an "alternate representation" when appropriate (typically depending on the action type). |
| GetBoundingBox | (Inherited from SoGroup.) |
| GetChild | Returns pointer the child node with the given index. |
| GetEventIn | Returns a the eventIn with the given name. |
| GetEventOut | Returns the eventOut with the given name. |
| GetField | Returns a the field of this object whose name is fieldName. |
| GetFieldName | Returns the name of the given field in the fieldName argument. |
| GetFields | Appends references to all of this object's fields to resultList, and returns the number of fields appended. |
| GetHashCode |
Overrides GetHashCode().
(Inherited from SoNetBase.) |
| GetMatrix | (Inherited from SoGroup.) |
| GetName | Returns the name of an instance. |
| GetNumChildren | Returns number of children. |
| GetPrimitiveCount | (Inherited from SoGroup.) |
| GetRenderEngineMode | Returns the supported Render engine mode. |
| GetRenderUnitID | (Inherited from SoNode.) |
| GetStringName | (Inherited from SoBase.) |

| HasDefaultValues | Returns true if all of the object's fields have their default values. |
| InsertChild | Adds a child so that it becomes the one with the given index. |
| IsBoundingBoxIgnoring | Used by BoundingBoxAction to known if bounding box computation should be ignored or not. |
| IsNotifyEnabled | Notification is the process of telling interested objects that this object has changed. |
| IsOverride | Returns the state of the override flag. |
| IsSynchronizable | Gets the ScaleViz synchronizable state of this object. |
| Pick | (Inherited from SoGroup.) |
| RayPick | (Overrides SoNodeRayPick(SoRayPickAction).) |
| RemoveAllChildren | Removes all children from group. |
| RemoveChild(Int32) | Removes child with given index from group. |
| RemoveChild(SoNode) | Removes first instance of given child from group. |
| ReplaceChild(Int32, SoNode) | Replaces child with given index with new child. |
| ReplaceChild(SoNode, SoNode) | Replaces first instance of given child with new child. |
| Search | (Inherited from SoGroup.) |
| Set | 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. |
| SetName | (Inherited from SoBase.) |
| SetOverride | Turns the override flag on or off. |
| SetSynchronizable | Sets this to be a ScaleViz synchronizable object. |
| SetToDefaults | Sets all fields in this object to their default values. |
| ToString |
Converts this SoBase structure to a human readable string.
(Inherited from SoBase.) |
| Touch | Marks an instance as modified, simulating a change to it. |
| Write | (Inherited from SoGroup.) |
Properties| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | boundingBoxIgnoring | Whether to ignore this node during bounding box traversal. |
| IsDisposable | ISafeDisposable interface implementation.
(Inherited from SoDisposable.) |
| UserData |
Gets or sets the user data to be contained by the field container.
(Inherited from SoFieldContainer.) |
RemarksThis node allows you to join multiple NURBS surfaces without cracks between them. Surfaces which need to be joined must have profiles (OIV.Inventor.Nodes.SoNurbsProfile) that share the same boundary (OIV.Inventor.Nodes.SoNurbsBoundary).
In order to work, profiles must have an equivalent parameterization. Evaluating two profiles with a shared boundary at the same t will give two (u,v) pairs: (u1,v1) and (u2,v2). Then, evaluating (u1,v1) on the first NURBS surface will give a point P1 and (u2,v2) will give a point P2 on the second surface. If P1 and P2 are equal (within a tolerance) then the two profiles have an equivalent parameterization.
The picture below is a scene graph with joined surfaces:
In this scene, the following surfaces will be joined:
NS0 and NS1 with boundary NB0
NS1 and NS2 with boundary NB1
NS0 and NS2 with boundary NB2
