DESCRIPTION
SoTabBoxDragger is a composite dragger shaped like a box. Inside it are six SoTabPlaneDraggers which the
dragger positions and orients to form a cube. The operations available in an SoTabPlaneDragger
(translation, 1D scaling and 2D scaling) are available on each face of the cube. Since they each move in
their local space, the dragger may be easily translated or scaled in any direction.
As a composite dragger, this class makes sure that when one plane is dragged, the entire box moves
together.
As each sub-dragger is moved, the SoTabBoxDragger updates its scaleFactor and translation fields. As with
all draggers, if you change a field the dragger will move to match the new settings.
Remember: This is not an SoTransform!. If you want to move other objects with this dragger, you can
either:
[a] Use an SoTabBoxManip, which is subclassed from SoTransform. It creates one of these draggers and uses
it as the interface to change its fields. (see the SoTabBoxManip man page).
[b] Use field-to-field connections to connect the fields of this dragger to those of any SoTransformation
node.
You can change the parts in any instance of this dragger using setPart(). The default part geometries are
defined as resources for this SoTabBoxDragger class. They are detailed below in the Dragger Resources
section of the online reference page for this class. You can make your program use different default
resources for the parts by copying the file /usr/share/data/draggerDefaults/tabBoxDragger.iv into your
own directory, editing the file, and then setting the environment variable SO_DRAGGER_DIR to be a path to
that directory.
FIELDS
SoSFVec3f scaleFactor
Scale of the dragger.
SoSFVec3f translation
Position of the dragger.
METHODS
SoTabBoxDragger()
Constructor.
void adjustScaleTabSize()
Cause the scale tab sizes to be re-adjusted on all 6 SoTabPlaneDraggers so that they remain a near
constant screen space size. This happens automatically upon dragger finish. Call this to adjust the
scale tab sizes at other times, for instance after the camera has changed in a viewer finish callback.
static const SoNodekitCatalog *
getClassNodekitCatalog() const
Returns an SoNodekitCatalog for this class
static SoType getClassTypeId()
Returns type identifier for this class.
