  Public Functions

  `DrawingAttributeKit`()

    Initializes an empty kit.

  `DrawingAttributeKit`(DrawingAttributeKit &&in_that)

    The move constructor creates a DrawingAttributeKit by transferring the underlying impl of the rvalue reference to this DrawingAttributeKit thereby avoiding a copy and allocation.

    Parameters: | in_that – An rvalue reference to a DrawingAttributeKit to take the impl from.

  `DrawingAttributeKit`(DrawingAttributeKit const &in_kit)

    The copy constructor creates a new DrawingAttributeKit object that contains the same settings as the source object.

    Parameters: | in_kit – The source object to copy.

  virtual bool `Empty`() const

    Indicates whether this object has any values set on it.

    Returns: | true if no values are set on this object, false otherwise.

  bool `Equals`(DrawingAttributeKit const &in_kit) const

    Check if the source DrawingAttributeKit is equivalent to this object.

    Parameters: | in_kit – The source DrawingAttributeKit to compare to this object.
    Returns: | true if the objects are equivalent, false otherwise.

  inline virtual HPS::Type `ObjectType`() const

    This function returns the type the object, as declared (if the object is derived, this does not give the true type of the derived object).

    Returns: | The declared type of the object in question, which may differ from the true, underlying type.

  bool `operator!=`(DrawingAttributeKit const &in_kit) const

    Check if the source DrawingAttributeKit is not equivalent to this object.

    Returns: | true if the objects are not equivalent, false otherwise.

  DrawingAttributeKit &`operator=`(DrawingAttributeKit &&in_that)

    The move assignment operator transfers the underlying impl of the rvalue reference to this DrawingAttributeKit thereby avoiding a copy.

  DrawingAttributeKit &`SetDeferral`(int in_deferral)

    Specifies a drawing order for a segment during timed updates. Segments with a lower deferral value will be drawn before segments with a higher value. This attribute does not inherit like most attributes and segments have a default value of 0.

    Parameters: | in_deferral – A drawing priority, with larger values drawing later than usual. Should be non-negative.
    Returns: | A reference to this object.

  DrawingAttributeKit &`SetDepthRange`(float in_near, float in_far)

    Compresses effective Z values into a subset of what they would otherwise have been. This allows certain pieces of the scene to be drawn on top at all times without additional sub-windows. Values of (0,0) will force all geometry into the frontmost bucket, but will have the drawback that it will cause z-fighting amongst the geometry that shares that setting. To get such pieces of geometry to resolve reasonably well against each other, a range of (0,0.1) should perform reasonably well.

    Depth range settings are not cumulative, and have no effect when the rendering algorithm is Priority, or is not set.

    The default is (0,1)

    Parameters: | in_near – The portion of the depth range closest to the camera. Valid range is [0,1] with in_near <= in_far. in_far – The portion of the depth range furthest to the camera. Valid range is [0,1] with in_near <= in_far.
    Returns: | A reference to this object.

  DrawingAttributeKit &`SetFaceDisplacement`(bool in_state, int in_buckets = 0)

    Specifies a number of Z-buffer units that rendered faces should be pushed away from the camera. This can be used to reduce edge stitching by ensuring that coincident edges lay on top of the faces. Negative face displacements will push faces toward the camera.

    Parameters: | in_state – Whether face displacement should be used. in_buckets – The number of units to move faces in the Z-Buffer. The units are 1/2^24 in the normalized depth range [0,1]. Negative values will move faces toward the camera, positive values away from the camera.
    Returns: | A reference to this object.

  DrawingAttributeKit &`SetFaceDisplacement`(int in_buckets)

    Specifies a number of Z-buffer units that rendered faces should be pushed away from the camera.

    SetFaceDisplacement(bool in_state, int in_buckets)

    Parameters: | in_buckets – The number of units to move faces in the Z-Buffer. The units are 1/2^24 in the normalized depth range [0,1]. Negative values will move faces toward the camera, positive values away from the camera.

  DrawingAttributeKit &`SetGeneralDisplacement`(bool in_state, int in_buckets = 0)

    Specifies a number of Z-buffer units that all geometry should be pushed away from the camera. This can be used to ensure that certain geometry is drawn on top of or behind the rest of the scene. Negative general displacements will push geometry toward the camera.

    Parameters: | in_state – Whether general displacement should be used. in_buckets – The number of units to move rendered geometry in the Z-Buffer. The units are 1/2^24 in the normalized depth range [0,1]. Negative values will move geometry toward the camera, positive values away from the camera.
    Returns: | A reference to this object.

  DrawingAttributeKit &`SetOverlay`(Drawing::Overlay in_overlay)

    Allows moving, editing, or deleting to take place in a segment without triggering a full-screen redraw.

    Parameters: | in_overlay – The type of overlay, if any, to be used.
    Returns: | A reference to this object.

  DrawingAttributeKit &`SetOverrideInternalColor`(VisibilityKit const &in_kit)

    Specifies internal color of line styles, glyphs and similar items should be overridden.

    Parameters: | in_kit – Which types should internal colors should be overridden.
    Returns: | A reference to this object.

  DrawingAttributeKit &`SetPolygonHandedness`(Drawing::Handedness in_handedness)

    In order to perform back face culling, there must be some definition of a polygon’s “front” and “back” faces. This orientation is determined by the order in which the polygon’s vertices were originally defined and the polygon handedness setting (not the world handedness).

    If you wrap the fingers of the chosen hand along the vertices of the polygon, with your wrist at the first vertex and your fingertips at the last, then extend your thumb perpendicular to your fingers, your thumb is extending out of the front face of the polygon.
