Detailed Description

A base class for geometry providers that will supply VTK data.

In addition to the data itself, VTK needs some information about the context of the data:

Member Enumeration Documentation

◆ Purpose

The contextual purpose of geometry supplied by the provider.

Enumerator
Surface 

Geometry is a set of cells representing a simulation manifold.

Glyph 

Geometry is a set of points with scalars representing orientation, scale, etc.

Label 

Geometry has a cell-scalar that indicates classification, possibly of multiple objects.

Member Function Documentation

◆ addTransformArrayIfPresent()

bool smtk::extension::vtk::geometry::Geometry::addTransformArrayIfPresent ( vtkDataObject *  data,
const std::shared_ptr< smtk::resource::PersistentObject > &  object,
const std::string &  outputArrayName = "transform" 
)
static

A convenience to add a field-data transform array the representation will apply to the data before rendering.

This method returns true if object has a CoordinateFrame property named "transform" or "smtk.geometry.transform" (because an array is added to data) and false otherwise.

Note that if object has CoordinateFrame values at both names, "transform" is preferred since it is more likely to be directly specified by an end user.

Note the outputArrayName is not the name of the property to examine, but the name to be assigned to an output VTK data-array (if any is created).

◆ dimension()

virtual int smtk::extension::vtk::geometry::Geometry::dimension ( const smtk::resource::PersistentObjectPtr obj) const
pure virtual

The VTK backend requires the parametric dimension of each object's geometry.

This is used to order rendering so that things of lower dimension are rendered to the z-buffer before objects of higher dimension (giving them priority so they are not obscured).
