Implements a parameter container for interface block layout.
Class registration and implementation information is as follows:
Category | Documentation |
---|---|
Implementation | C++ |
Module | Plugin-Nodes-Glsl |
Class Hierarchy | Node » Group » InterfaceBlockNode |
Data Interface Name | InterfaceBlockNode |
Type Status | Deprecated |
Is Final Type | Yes |
Properties are as follows:
Property | Documentation |
---|---|
Block Name | The name of the block. For example 'in DataIn{};', 'DataIn' is the block name. |
Block Instance Name | The name of the block if applicable. For example 'in DataIn{} my_block;', 'my_block' is the block instance name. |
Is Implicitly Sized Array | If true this is marked as an unsized array. For example, when an interface block is used in a control or evaluation shader, it can be implicitly sized. |
Array Dimension | This sets an explicit array size if an interface block is arrayed. |
Previous Data Source | A link to an <InterfaceBlockNode> representing the previous shader stage, if applicable. |
Next Data Source | A link to an <InterfaceBlockNode> representing the next shader stage, if applicable. |
Properties are as follows:
Property | Documentation |
---|---|
Visible | Toggles the <Group>'s visible/invisible". Child nodes are not visible when their parent <Group>'s is invisible. |
Collisions | Toggles collision detection on the <Group> node and its children". This is used for runtime export and has no effect in Scenome applications. |
Cull | Toggles view volume culling on/off". modifying this parameter may cause incorrect culling and other unexpected consequences. |
Preserve Camera | This option is undocumented at present. |
Generic Data Source | This option provides the capability to connect a <Group>'s to a node that serves as a generic data source. |
Bounding Box Frozen | Freezes the bounding box at its current size. This is often used as a runtime flag, and modifying this parameter may cause incorrect culling. |
Minimum X | Displays the minimum bounding box coordinate on the X axis. |
Minimum Y | Displays the minimum bounding box coordinate on the Y axis. |
Minimum Z | Displays the minimum bounding box coordinate on the Z axis. |
Maximum X | Displays the maximum bounding box coordinate on the X axis. |
Maximum Y | Displays the maximum bounding box coordinate on the Y axis. |
Maximum Z | Displays the maximum bounding box coordinate on the Z axis. |
Transform Locked | Locks the node and prevents transformation of the node and its children. This is a runtime flag and has no effect in Scenome applications. |
Position X | Displays the node's position on the X axis. |
Position Y | Displays the node's position on the Y axis. |
Position Z | Displays the node's position on the Z axis. |
Orientation X | Displays the node's orientation on the X axis. |
Orientation Y | Displays the node's orientation on the Y axis. |
Orientation Z | Displays the node's orientation on the Z axis. |
Scale X | Displays the node's scale on the X axis. |
Scale Y | Displays the node's scale on the Y axis. |
Scale Z | Displays the node's scale on the Z axis. |
Billboard | Sets the node as a billboard. Billboards rotate to face the camera. This feature has been preserved for compatibility purposes, but this functionality should be implemented with geometry shaders. |
Properties are as follows:
Property | Documentation |
---|---|
Name | Sets the name of the node. Do not use / or \ [forward slash and backslash] in the node name as this produces conflicts with resolving link nodes that reference external files. |
Class | Sets the class of the node. |
ID | Sets the ID of the node. This must be unique for each document, but different documents can use the same ID. |
Export Disabled | Determines whether or not the node is exported during an export process, or possibly other purposes. |
Guid | Enumerates the Node's GUID. |
