SoMarkerListPointSet

InventorModule

author	Florian Link
package	MeVisLab/Standard
dll	SoRenderers
definition	SoRenderers.def

Purpose

The SoMarkerListPointSet renders a MarkerList as points, using a SoPointSet. It can also provide per-marker radii, based on the direction vector contained in each marker.

Usage

This module can either be used to render markers as points, or it can be used together with the SoPointSpriteRenderer to render a huge amount of markers as spheres using point sprites.

Input Fields

inMarkers

name: inMarkers, type: MLBase

The input marker list.

inStylePalette

name: inStylePalette, type: MLBase

The optional style palette.

Parameter Fields

Field Index

boundingBoxCaching: Enum

Color Mode: Enum

pickCulling: Enum

renderCaching: Enum

renderCulling: Enum

Sphere Radius Vertex Attribute: Bool

Visible Fields

Color Mode

name: colorMode, type: Enum, default: COLOR_BY_TYPE

Specifies how the point color is defined, using the input style palette.

Values:

Title	Name	Description
Type	COLOR_BY_TYPE	Color by type of marker.
Index	COLOR_BY_INDEX	Color by index.
Id	COLOR_BY_ID	Color by id.

Sphere Radius Vertex Attribute

name: sphereRadiusVertexAttribute, type: Bool, default: FALSE

If enabled, the radius of each marker is provided as a SoVertexAttribute1f called "sphereRadius". This can be used in shaders, e.g. the SoPointSpriteRenderer can make use of it.
