NAME

       SoGLLineWidthElement -

       The SoGLLineWidthElement class changes the linewidth setting of the OpenGL render state.

       Requests from the scenegraph to change the linewidth when rendering OpenGL line primitives
       will be made through this element, which forwards it to the appropriate native OpenGL
       call.

Detailed Description

       The SoGLLineWidthElement class changes the linewidth setting of the OpenGL render state.

       Requests from the scenegraph to change the linewidth when rendering OpenGL line primitives
       will be made through this element, which forwards it to the appropriate native OpenGL
       call.

       The Coin library does not place any bounds on the values of the linewidths, but be aware
       that the range and granularity of what is valid linewidths depends on the underlying
       OpenGL implementation. Application programmers using line primitives (typically through
       the SoLineSet or SoIndexedLineSet nodes) should heed these boundary values. They can be
       acquired by running the following code from within a valid OpenGL context:

       GLfloat bounds[2];
       glGetFloatv(GL_LINE_WIDTH_RANGE, bounds);
       GLfloat granularity[1];
       glGetFloatv(GL_LINE_WIDTH_GRANULARITY, granularity);

       Another, perhaps more convenient, way of acquiring the OpenGL implementation limits with
       regard to pointsizes is to use the So*GLWidget::getPointSizeLimits() method in the GUI
       'glue' interface library you are using (SoQt, SoXt, SoGtk, SoWin, ...).

Member Function Documentation

   void * SoGLLineWidthElement::createInstance (void) [static]
       This API member is considered internal to the library, as it is not likely to be of
       interest to the application programmer.

   void SoGLLineWidthElement::init (SoState *state) [virtual]
       This function initializes the element type in the given SoState. It is called for the
       first element of each enabled element type in SoState objects.

       Reimplemented from SoLineWidthElement.

   void SoGLLineWidthElement::push (SoState *state) [virtual]
       This method is called every time a new element is required in one of the stacks. This
       happens when a writable element is requested, using SoState::getElement() or indirectly
       SoElement::getElement(), and the depth of the current element is less than the state
       depth.

       Override this method if your element needs to copy data from the previous top of stack.
       The push() method is called on the new element, and the previous element can be found
       using SoElement::getNextInStack().

       Reimplemented from SoElement.

   void SoGLLineWidthElement::pop (SoState *state, const SoElement *prevTopElement) [virtual]
       This method is callled when the state is popped, and the depth of the element is bigger
       than the current state depth. pop() is called on the new top of stack, and a pointer to
       the previous top of stack is passed in prevTopElement.

       Override this method if you need to copy some state information from the previous top of
       stack.

       Reimplemented from SoElement.

   void SoGLLineWidthElement::setElt (floatvalue) [protected],  [virtual]
       Set element value.

       Reimplemented from SoFloatElement.
