Copy

public class SoShapeStyleElement : SoElement

Public Class SoShapeStyleElement
	Inherits SoElement

    end

The SoShapeStyleElement type exposes the following members.

Methods

	Name	Description
	Equals	Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	Get	Get a readable instance.
	GetClassStackIndex	Obsolete. Returns the stack id for this element.
	GetHashCode	Overrides GetHashCode(). (Inherited from SoNetBase.)
	GetRenderCaseMask	Returns a mask that can be used by the SoVertexPropertyCache class (see SoVertexProperty.h for the SoRenderInfo class) to quickly mask out the normal or texture coordinate cases if normals or texture coordinates aren't needed.
	GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
	MightNotRender	Returns true if shapes may not render for some reason.
	NeedNormals	Returns true if need normals.
	NeedTangents	Returns true if need tangents.
	NeedTexCoords	Calls NeedTexCoords(System.Int32(0)).
	NeedTexCoords(Int32)	Returns true if need texture coordinates.
	NeedTexCoords3	Calls NeedTexCoords3(System.Int32(0)).
	NeedTexCoords3(Int32)	Returns true if need 3D texture coordinates.
	Pop	Pops element. (Overrides SoElementPop(SoState, SoElement).)
	Push	Pushes element. (Overrides SoElementPush(SoState).)
	SetComplexityType	API used by other elements.
	SetDrawStyle	API used by other elements.
	SetLightModel	API used by other elements.
	SetOverrides	Set value is true if either diffuse, transparency, or materialbinding are overridden; otherwise false.
	SetTexture3Enabled(SoState, Boolean)	Calls SetTexture3Enabled(state, value, System.Int32(0)).
	SetTexture3Enabled(SoState, Boolean, Int32)	API used by other elements.
	SetTextureEnabled(SoState, Boolean)	Calls SetTextureEnabled(state, value, System.Int32(0)).
	SetTextureEnabled(SoState, Boolean, Int32)	API used by other elements.
	SetTextureFunction(SoState, Boolean)	Calls SetTextureFunction(state, value, System.Int32(0)).
	SetTextureFunction(SoState, Boolean, Int32)	API used by other elements.
	SetTransparencyType	API used by other elements.
	ToString	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.)

Remarks

This elements stores some information shapes need to quickly determine whether or not they should render, and, if they should render, how they should render. Specifically, it stores:

NeedNormals: true if lighting is on NeedTangents: true if lighting is on NeedTexCoords: true if texturing and texcoords not generated by GL MightNotRender: true if:

bounding box complexity
invisible drawstyle
render abort callback registered
