Detailed Description

treat a volume as if it were an implicit function

vtkImplicitVolume treats a volume (e.g., structured point dataset) as if it were an implicit function. This means it computes a function value and gradient. vtkImplicitVolume is a concrete implementation of vtkImplicitFunction.

vtkImplicitDataSet computes the function (at the point x) by performing cell interpolation. That is, it finds the cell containing x, and then uses the cell's interpolation functions to compute an interpolated scalar value at x. (A similar approach is used to find the gradient, if requested.) Points outside of the dataset are assigned the value of the ivar OutValue, and the gradient value OutGradient.

Warning:
The input volume data is only updated when GetMTime() is called. Works for 3D structured points datasets, 0D-2D datasets won't work properly.

Member Function Documentation

virtual const char* vtkImplicitVolume::GetClassName (  )  [virtual]

Reimplemented from vtkImplicitFunction.

static int vtkImplicitVolume::IsTypeOf ( const char *  name  )  [static]

Return 1 if this class type is the same type of (or a subclass of) the named class. Returns 0 otherwise. This method works in combination with vtkTypeRevisionMacro found in vtkSetGet.h.

Reimplemented from vtkImplicitFunction.

virtual int vtkImplicitVolume::IsA ( const char *  name  )  [virtual]

Return 1 if this class is the same type of (or a subclass of) the named class. Returns 0 otherwise. This method works in combination with vtkTypeRevisionMacro found in vtkSetGet.h.

Reimplemented from vtkImplicitFunction.

static vtkImplicitVolume* vtkImplicitVolume::SafeDownCast ( vtkObject o  )  [static]

Reimplemented from vtkImplicitFunction.

void vtkImplicitVolume::PrintSelf ( ostream &  os,
vtkIndent  indent 
) [virtual]

Methods invoked by print to print information about the object including superclasses. Typically not called by the user (use Print() instead) but used in the hierarchical print process to combine the output of several classes.

Reimplemented from vtkImplicitFunction.

static vtkImplicitVolume* vtkImplicitVolume::New (  )  [static]

Construct an vtkImplicitVolume with no initial volume; the OutValue set to a large negative number; and the OutGradient set to (0,0,1).

Reimplemented from vtkObject.

unsigned long vtkImplicitVolume::GetMTime (  )  [virtual]

Returns the mtime also considering the volume. This also calls Update on the volume, and it therefore must be called before the function is evaluated.

Reimplemented from vtkImplicitFunction.

double vtkImplicitVolume::EvaluateFunction ( double  x[3]  )  [virtual]

Evaluate the ImplicitVolume. This returns the interpolated scalar value at x[3].

Implements vtkImplicitFunction.

double vtkImplicitVolume::EvaluateFunction ( double  x,
double  y,
double  z 
) [inline]

Evaluate the ImplicitVolume. This returns the interpolated scalar value at x[3].

Reimplemented from vtkImplicitFunction.

Definition at line 66 of file vtkImplicitVolume.h.

void vtkImplicitVolume::EvaluateGradient ( double  x[3],
double  n[3] 
) [virtual]

Evaluate ImplicitVolume gradient.

Implements vtkImplicitFunction.

virtual void vtkImplicitVolume::SetVolume ( vtkImageData  )  [virtual]

Specify the volume for the implicit function.

virtual vtkImageData* vtkImplicitVolume::GetVolume (  )  [virtual]

Specify the volume for the implicit function.

virtual void vtkImplicitVolume::SetOutValue ( double   )  [virtual]

Set the function value to use for points outside of the dataset.

virtual double vtkImplicitVolume::GetOutValue (  )  [virtual]

Set the function value to use for points outside of the dataset.

virtual void vtkImplicitVolume::SetOutGradient ( double  ,
double  ,
double   
) [virtual]

Set the function gradient to use for points outside of the dataset.

virtual void vtkImplicitVolume::SetOutGradient ( double  [3]  )  [virtual]

Set the function gradient to use for points outside of the dataset.

virtual double* vtkImplicitVolume::GetOutGradient (  )  [virtual]

Set the function gradient to use for points outside of the dataset.

virtual void vtkImplicitVolume::GetOutGradient ( double &  ,
double &  ,
double &   
) [virtual]

Set the function gradient to use for points outside of the dataset.

virtual void vtkImplicitVolume::GetOutGradient ( double  [3]  )  [virtual]

Set the function gradient to use for points outside of the dataset.
