(Inherited from SoDisposable.)
Public methodDistribute
(Inherited from SoNode.)
Public methodDoAction

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.)
Public methodGet

Returns the values of the fields of this object in the Open Inventor ASCII file format in the given string.

(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).

(Inherited from SoNode.)
Public methodGetBoundingBox
Public methodGetEventIn

Returns a the eventIn with the given name.

(Inherited from SoFieldContainer.)
Public methodGetEventOut

Returns the eventOut with the given name.

(Inherited from SoFieldContainer.)
Public methodGetField

Returns a the field of this object whose name is fieldName.

(Inherited from SoFieldContainer.)
Public methodGetFieldName

Returns the name of the given field in the fieldName argument.

(Inherited from SoFieldContainer.)
Public methodGetFields

Appends references to all of this object's fields to resultList, and returns the number of fields appended.

(Inherited from SoFieldContainer.)
Public methodGetHashCode
Overrides GetHashCode().
(Inherited from SoNetBase.)
Public methodGetMatrix
(Inherited from SoNode.)
Public methodGetName

Returns the name of an instance.

Traversal routine for OIV.Inventor.Actions.SoHandleEventAction - this will call action->setHandled() if the event is handled.

(Overrides SoNodeHandleEvent(SoHandleEventAction).)
Public methodHasDefaultValues

Returns true if all of the object's fields have their default values.

(Inherited from SoFieldContainer.)
Public methodIsBoundingBoxIgnoring

This method is used by getBoundingBox action traversal to know if the current node must be traversed or not, ie the bounding should be ignored.

Remarks

This node displays the scene graph specified by the OIV.Inventor.Drawers.SoScreenDrawer.sceneGraph field in screen space normalized in the range ([-1, 1]x[-1, 1]x[-1, 1]) relative to the current viewport.

The specified scene graph is automatically rendered using an OIV.Inventor.Nodes.SoAnnotation node, an OIV.Inventor.Nodes.SoPickStyle node with style = UNPICKABLE, and an OIV.Inventor.Nodes.SoOrthographicCamera node.

Classes derived from OIV.Inventor.Drawers.SoScreenDrawer are normally used to implement dynamically drawing a 2D shape, for example a rectangle, in response to mouse events. Applications will typically use one of these derived classes, for example, OIV.Inventor.Drawers.SoEllipseScreenDrawer, OIV.Inventor.Drawers.SoRectangleScreenDrawer, OIV.Inventor.Drawers.SoPolygonScreenDrawer or OIV.Inventor.Drawers.SoLassoScreenDrawer.

Please see OIV.Inventor.Drawers.SoPolyLineScreenDrawer for important notes about these classes and a code example.

Applications may also implement their own custom screen drawer classes. The convenient onMouseDown(), onMouseMove(), ... methods can be implemented by sub-classes to customize behaviors for specific events, but the application can also reimplement the OIV.Inventor.Drawers.SoScreenDrawer.HandleEvent(OIV.Inventor.Actions.SoHandleEventAction) method to handle any event.

There should only be one OIV.Inventor.Drawers.SoScreenDrawer derived node in the sceneGraph (to avoid conflicts in mouse events).

NOTE: This node and its subclasses use screen coordinates ranging from -1 to 1. (Because this is the default view volume for an OIV.Inventor.Nodes.SoOrthographicCamera node.) Be careful because other classes in Open Inventor use normalized screen coordinates ranging from 0 to 1. In particular the OIV.Inventor.SbViewportRegion normalize() method and the OIV.Inventor.SbViewVolume methods that project from 3D to 2D and vice-versa.
