Detailed Description
The SoSceneTexture2 class is used to create a 2D texture from a Coin scene graph.
Lets the rendering of a scene graph be specified as a texture image to be used in another
scene graph. Set up the scene graph used for a texture in the SoSceneTexture2::scene
field.
This node behaves exactly like SoTexture2 when it comes mapping the actual texture onto
subsequent geometry. Please read the SoTexture2 documentation for more information about
how textures are mapped onto shapes.
A notable feature of this node is that it will use offscreen pbuffers for hardware
accelerated rendering, if they are available from the OpenGL driver. WGL, GLX and AGL, for
OpenGL drivers on Microsoft Windows, X11 and Mac OS X, respectively, all support the
OpenGL Architecture Review Board (ARB) pbuffer extension in later incarnations from most
OpenGL vendors.
Note also that the offscreen pbuffer will be used directly on the card as a texture, with
no costly round trip back and forth from CPU memory, if the OpenGL driver supports the
recent ARB_render_texture extension.
An important limitation is that textures should have dimensions that are equal to a whole
power-of-two, see documentation for SoSceneTexture::size.

Member Enumeration Documentation
enum SoSceneTexture2::Model
Texture mapping model, for deciding how to 'merge' the texturemap with the object it is
mapped onto.
Enumerator
MODULATE
Texture color is multiplied by the polygon color. The result will be Phong shaded
(if light model is PHONG).
DECAL Texture image overwrites polygon shading. Textured pixels will not be Phong shaded.
Has undefined behaviour for grayscale and grayscale-alpha textures.
BLEND This model is normally used with monochrome textures (i.e. textures with one or two
components). The first component, the intensity, is then used to blend between the
shaded color of the polygon and the SoSceneTexture2::blendColor.
REPLACE
Texture image overwrites polygon shading. Textured pixels will not be Phong shaded.
Supports grayscale and grayscale alpha textures. This feature requires OpenGL 1.1.
MODULATE will be used if OpenGL version < 1.1 is detected.
enum SoSceneTexture2::Wrap
Enumeration of wrapping strategies which can be used when the texturemap doesn't cover the
full extent of the geometry.
Enumerator
REPEAT Repeat texture when coordinate is not between 0 and 1.
CLAMP Clamp coordinate between 0 and 1.
enum SoSceneTexture2::TransparencyFunction
For deciding how the texture's alpha channel is handled. It's not possible to
automatically detect this, since the texture is stored only on the graphics card's memory,
and it'd be too slow to fetch the image to test the alpha channel like Coin does for
regular textures.
Enumerator
NONE The alpha channel is ignored.
ALPHA_BLEND
Alpha blending is used.
ALPHA_TEST
An alpha test function is used.
enum SoSceneTexture2::Type
Enumerator
DEPTH Specifies a depth buffer texture.
RGBA8 Specifies an RGBA texture with 8 bits per component.
Member Function Documentation
SoType SoSceneTexture2::getTypeId (void) const [virtual]
Returns the type identification of an object derived from a class inheriting SoBase. This
is used for run-time type checking and 'downward' casting. Usage example:
void foo(SoNode * node)
{
if (node->getTypeId() == SoFile::getClassTypeId()) {
SoFile * filenode = (SoFile *)node; // safe downward cast, knows the type
}
}
For application programmers wanting to extend the library with new nodes, engines,
nodekits, draggers or others: this method needs to be overridden in all subclasses. This
is typically done as part of setting up the full type system for extension classes, which
is usually accomplished by using the pre-defined macros available through for instance
Inventor/nodes/SoSubNode.h (SO_NODE_INIT_CLASS and SO_NODE_CONSTRUCTOR for node classes),
Inventor/engines/SoSubEngine.h (for engine classes) and so on.
For more information on writing Coin extensions, see the class documentation of the
toplevel superclasses for the various class groups.
Implements SoBase.
const SoFieldData * SoSceneTexture2::getFieldData (void) const [protected], [virtual]
Returns a pointer to the class-wide field data storage object for this instance. If no
fields are present, returns NULL.
Reimplemented from SoFieldContainer.
void SoSceneTexture2::notify (SoNotList *l) [virtual]
Notifies all auditors for this instance when changes are made.
Reimplemented from SoNode.
void SoSceneTexture2::write (SoWriteAction *action) [virtual]
Action method for SoWriteAction.
Writes out a node object, and any connected nodes, engines etc, if necessary.
Reimplemented from SoNode.
void SoSceneTexture2::doAction (SoAction *action) [virtual]
This function performs the typical operation of a node for any action.
Reimplemented from SoNode.
void SoSceneTexture2::GLRender (SoGLRenderAction *action) [virtual]
Action method for the SoGLRenderAction.
This is called during rendering traversals. Nodes influencing the rendering state in any
way or who wants to throw geometry primitives at OpenGL overrides this method.
Reimplemented from SoNode.
void SoSceneTexture2::callback (SoCallbackAction *action) [virtual]
Action method for SoCallbackAction.
Simply updates the state according to how the node behaves for the render action, so the
application programmer can use the SoCallbackAction for extracting information about the
scene graph.
Reimplemented from SoNode.
void SoSceneTexture2::rayPick (SoRayPickAction *action) [virtual]
Action method for SoRayPickAction.
Checks the ray specification of the action and tests for intersection with the data of the
node.
Nodes influencing relevant state variables for how picking is done also overrides this
method.
Reimplemented from SoNode.
Member Data Documentation
SoSFEnum SoSceneTexture2::wrapS
Wrapping strategy for the S coordinate when the texturemap is narrower than the object to
map onto.
Default value is SoSceneTexture2::REPEAT.
SoSFEnum SoSceneTexture2::wrapT
Wrapping strategy for the T coordinate when the texturemap is shorter than the object to
map onto.
Default value is SoSceneTexture2::REPEAT.
SoSFEnum SoSceneTexture2::model
Texturemapping model for how the texturemap is 'merged' with the polygon primitives it is
applied to. Default value is SoSceneTexture2::MODULATE.
SoSFColor SoSceneTexture2::blendColor
Blend color. Used when SoSceneTexture2::model is SoSceneTexture2::BLEND.
Default color value is [0, 0, 0], black, which means no contribution to the blending is
made.
SoSFVec4f SoSceneTexture2::backgroundColor
The color the color buffer is cleared to before rendering the scene. Default value is
(0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f).
SoSFVec2s SoSceneTexture2::size
The size of the texture.
This node currently only supports power of two textures. If the size is not a power of
two, the value will be rounded upwards to the next power of two.
SoSFNode SoSceneTexture2::scene
The scene graph that is rendered into the texture.
SoSFNode SoSceneTexture2::sceneTransparencyType
Used for overriding the transparency type for the sub scene graph. Should contain an
instance of the SoTransparecyType node, or NULL to inherit the transparency type from the
current viewer.
Please note that if you want to render the texture using frame buffer objects, you need to
use of of the NONE, SCREEN_DOOR, ADD or BLEND transparency types.
SoSFEnum SoSceneTexture2::transparencyFunction
The transparency function used. Default value is NONE.
SoSFNode SoSceneTexture2::type
The type of texture to generate. RGBA_UNSIGNED_BYTE for normal texture, DEPTH for a depth
buffer texture, RGBA_FLOAT for a floating point RGBA texture. texture. Default is
RGBA_UNSIGNED_BYTE.
