Functions

HC_KEY Insert_Line (double xa, double ya, double za, double xb, double yb, double zb)
 
HC_KEY DInsert_Line (double xa, double ya, double za, double xb, double yb, double zb)
 

Detailed Description

Function Documentation

HC_KEY Insert_Line ( double  xa,
double  ya,
double  za,
double  xb,
double  yb,
double  zb 
)

Adds a simple line segment to the current graphics segment.

Parameters
xa- x-coordinate for one end of the line segment.
ya- y-coordinate for one end of the line segment.
za- z-coordinate for one end of the line segment.
xb- x-coordinate for other end of the line segment.
yb- y-coordinate for other end of the line segment.
zb- z-coordinate for other end of the line segment.
Returns
The key to the inserted geometry.

DETAILS

This is a primitive way to insert lines into your scene. More flexible routines include Insert_Polyline() , which requires passing all the x-y-z values at once, and Insert_Ink() , which requires multiple calls to draw a line.

NOTES

If you only work in two dimensions, specify za and zb as zero.

If there is an error the Insert routine returns a -1.

RESTRICTIONS

HC_KEY DInsert_Line ( double  xa,
double  ya,
double  za,
double  xb,
double  yb,
double  zb 
)

Similar to Insert_Line() but accepts and/or returns double-precision values. This command can only be used when the application links the HOOPS double-precison module.

Parameters
xa- x-coordinate for one end of the line segment.
ya- y-coordinate for one end of the line segment.
za- z-coordinate for one end of the line segment.
xb- x-coordinate for other end of the line segment.
yb- y-coordinate for other end of the line segment.
zb- z-coordinate for other end of the line segment.
Returns
The key to the inserted geometry.

DETAILS

No additional details. See Insert_Line().
