Method Detail

init

public void init()

Description copied from class: PsObject

If instance has missing name then assign default name 'object_NUMBER' where number is the total number of already created instances.

Overrides:

init in class PsObject

update

public boolean update(java.lang.Object event)

Description copied from class: PsObject

Update all inspector panels, send update to all registered update listeners and finally update parent. Each of those updates has this object as event independent of the argument of this method.

Central update method of this object. Must be overwritten if this class receives unknown events, say, from new children. Any subclass must class invoke super.update(event) on all events it does handle itself.

Overrides:

update in class PsObject

Following copied from class: jv.object.PsObject

getGeometry

public PgElementSet getGeometry()

setFunction sets clipping function

setGeometry

public void setGeometry(PgElementSet geom)

setFunction sets clipping function

setFunction

public void setFunction(java.lang.String s)

Set expression of level function used clipping from outside of workshop. String must be a valid mathematical function in variables {u,v,w} where the number of variables must be equal to the vertex dimension of the geometry to which clipping is applied.
