Detailed Description

class HOpConstructSphere : public HBaseOperator

The HOpConstructSphere class provides support for constructing a sphere and inserting it into the model.

HOpConstructSphere implements three of the mouse event handlers defined on the base class and maps the events to local methods that rubberband a sphere and insert a corresponding HOOPS shell into the HOOPS database. This provides the basic functionality for drawing a three-dimensional, tesselated sphere. The operation consists of the following steps:

  1. Left Button Down: Registers the center point of the sphere.

  2. Left Button Down and Drag: Rubberbands the sphere to the desired circumference.

  3. Left Button Up: Circumference is finalized, the scene is cleared and the operation ends.

More Detailed Description: see event methods.

Public Functions

HOpConstructSphere(HBaseView *view, int DoRepeat = 0, int DoCapture = 1)

Constructs an HOpConstructSphere object.

Parameters

  • view – A pointer to an HBaseView object.

  • DoRepeat – An integer denoting whether this is a repeatable operator. This parameter has been deprecated.

  • DoCapture – An integer denoting whether the mouse state should be captured, which means that all mouse events should be received after a mousedown, even if it leaves the window. This parameter has been deprecated.

virtual ~HOpConstructSphere()
virtual char const *GetName()
Returns

A pointer to a character string denoting the name of the operator which is ‘Construct Sphere’.

virtual int OnLButtonDown(HEventInfo &hevent)

OnLButtonDown records the first pointer position and initiates the sphere-drawing mechanism.

Parameters

hevent – An HEventInfo object containing information about the current event.

Returns

An HOperatorReturn indicating the status of the event.

virtual int OnLButtonDownAndMove(HEventInfo &hevent)

OnLButtonDownAndMove draws rubberbanded lines along the circumference of three great circles centered on the first pointer position: one equatorial, one along the prime meridian, and one 90-degrees from the prime meridian. Note that the basic dynamic drawing work is done by repeated calls to the protected function HOpConstructSphere::ConstructWireframeSphere.

Parameters

hevent – An HEventInfo object containing information about the current event.

Returns

An HOperatorReturn indicating the status of the event.

virtual int OnLButtonUp(HEventInfo &hevent)

OnLButtonUp finalizes the size of the sphere and cleans up.

Parameters

hevent – An HEventInfo object containing information about the current event.

Returns

An HOperatorReturn indicating the status of the event.

virtual HBaseOperator *Clone()

Creates a new operator which is a copy of the current operator. The user is responsible for deleting the newly created operator.

Returns

A pointer to the newly created HOpConstructSphere object.
