Detailed Description

The SoRotateDiscDragger class is for rotating geometry around a single axis.

Here's how the dragger looks with its default geometry in the inactive state:

rotatedisc.png

Use an instance of this dragger class in your scenegraph to let the end-users of your application rotate geometry around a pre-defined axis vector in 3D.

The special feature of this dragger that sets it apart from the other draggers that provides rotation around an axis (like the SoRotateCylindricalDragger) is that it provides a convenient interface to rotate around an axis that is pointing in approximately the same direction as the camera. This is useful for interacting with for instance something like a "volume" knob.

For the dragger orientation and positioning itself, use some kind of transformation node in your scenegraph, as usual.


Constructor & Destructor Documentation

SoRotateDiscDragger::SoRotateDiscDragger ( void  )

Default constructor, sets up the dragger nodekit catalog with the interaction and feedback geometry.

Node kit structure (new entries versus parent class marked with arrow prefix):

  CLASS SoRotateDiscDragger
  -->"this"
        "callbackList"
        "topSeparator"
           "motionMatrix"
           "geomSeparator"
  -->         "rotatorSwitch"
  -->            "rotator"
  -->            "rotatorActive"
  -->         "feedbackSwitch"
  -->            "feedback"
  -->            "feedbackActive"
  

(See SoBaseKit::printDiagram() for information about the output formatting.)

Member Data Documentation

This field is continuously updated to contain the rotation of the current direction vector of the dragger.

The application programmer using this dragger in his scenegraph should connect the relevant node fields in the scene to this field to make them follow the dragger orientation.
