DESCRIPTION

       This engine takes as input a 4D vector, and decomposes it into four single  floating-point
       values.

       The  input  can  have multiple values, allowing the engine to decompose several vectors in
       parallel.

INPUTS

     SoMFVec4f           vector
          Vector to be decomposed.

OUTPUTS

     (SoMFFloat)         x
          First component of the vector.

     (SoMFFloat)         y
          Second component of the vector.

     (SoMFFloat)         z
          Third component of the vector.

     (SoMFFloat)         w
          Fourth component of the vector.

METHODS

                         SoDecomposeVec4f()
          Constructor

FILE FORMAT/DEFAULTS

       DecomposeVec4f {
          vector  0 0 0 0
