Detailed Description ​

cpp
class Vp::Shaper;

A utility class for constructing simple shapes.

Used in Viewport for drawing of world axes, axes of models and wireframe objects (such as projection frustum)

Public Functions Documentation ​

function initDefaultShapes ​

cpp
static void initDefaultShapes()

function clear ​

cpp
void clear()

Clear prepared geometry (vertices and colors).

function createLineMesh ​

cpp
Core::Mesh * createLineMesh(
    const std::string & alias ="",
    Core::Mesh::BufferType bufferType =Core::Mesh::BufferType::STATIC
)

Create a line mesh from current shaper state.

Parameters:

  • alias Unique shape identifier, registered with ResourceManager if not empty

Return:

Note: Dynamic meshes should not provide an alias, as they would persist in ResourceManager.

function createMesh ​

cpp
Core::Mesh * createMesh(
    const std::string & alias ="",
    Core::Mesh::BufferType bufferType =Core::Mesh::BufferType::STATIC
)

Create a triangle mesh from current shaper state.

Parameters:

  • alias Unique shape identifier, registered with ResourceManager if not empty

Return:

Note: Dynamic meshes should not provide an alias, as they would persist in ResourceManager.
