Detailed Description

contains an octree of labels

This class represents labels in a hierarchy used to denote rendering priority. A binary tree of labels is maintained that subdivides the bounds of the of the label anchors spatially. Which level of the tree a label occupies determines its priority; those at higher levels of the tree will be more likely to render than those at lower levels of the tree.

Pass vtkLabelHierarchy objects to a vtkLabelPlacementMapper filter for dynamic, non-overlapping, per-frame placement of labels.

Note that if we have a d-dimensional binary tree and we want a fixed number $n$ of labels in each node (all nodes, not just leaves), we can compute the depth of tree required assuming a uniform distribution of points. Given a total of $N$ points we know that $\frac{N}{|T|} = n$ , where $|T|$ is the cardinality of the tree (i.e., the number of nodes it contains). Because we have a uniform distribution, the tree will be uniformly subdivided and thus $|T| = 1 + 2^d + \left(2^d\right)^2 + \cdots + \left(2^d\right)^k$ , where $d$ is the dimensionality of the input points (fixed at 3 for now). As $k$ becomes large, $|T|\approx 2 \left(2^d\right)^k$ . Using this approximation, we can solve for $k$ :

$k = \frac{\log{\frac{N}{2n}}}{\log{2^d}}$

Given a set of $N$ input label anchors, we'll compute $k$ and then bin the anchors into tree nodes at level $k$ of the tree. After this, all the nodes will be in the leaves of the tree and those leaves will be at the $k$ -th level; no anchors will be in levels $1, 2, \ldots, k-1$ . To fix that, we'll choose to move some anchors upwards. The exact number to move upwards depends on TargetLabelCount. We'll move as many up as required to have TargetLabelCount at each node.

You should avoid situations where MaximumDepth does not allow for TargetLabelCount or fewer entries at each node. The MaximumDepth is a hard limit while TargetLabelCount is a suggested optimum. You will end up with many more than TargetLabelCount entries per node and things will be sloooow.

virtual void vtkLabelHierarchy::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 vtkPointSet.

virtual void vtkLabelHierarchy::SetPoints ( vtkPoints * ) [virtual]

	)

Returns an iterator for this data object. positionsAsNormals should only be true when labels are on a sphere centered at the origin (3D world).

Parameters:

type	- the type should be one of FULL_SORT, QUEUE, DEPTH_FIRST, or FRUSTUM.
ren	- the current renderer (used for viewport information)
cam	- the current camera.
frustumPlanes	- should be the output of the camera's frustum planes.
positionsAsNormals	- throws out octree nodes on the opposite side of the origin.
bucketSize	- an array of 2 integers describing the width and height of label placer buckets.

void vtkLabelHierarchy::GetDiscreteNodeCoordinatesFromWorldPoint	(	int	ijk[3],
		double	pt[3],
		int	level
	)

Given a depth in the hierarchy (level) and a point pt in world space, compute ijk. This is used to find other octree nodes at the same level that are within the search radius for candidate labels to be placed. It is called with pt set to the camera eye point and pythagorean quadruples increasingly distant from the origin are added to ijk to identify octree nodes whose labels should be placed.

Parameters:

[out]	ijk	- discrete coordinates of the octree node at level containing pt.
[in]	pt	- input world point coordinates
[in]	level	- input octree level to be considered

static bool vtkLabelHierarchy::GetPathForNodalCoordinates	(	int *	path,
		int	ijk[3],
		int	level
	)		`[static]`

Given a level of the tree and ijk coordinates in a lattice, compute a path down the tree to reach the corresponding lattice node. If the lattice coordinates are outside the tree, this returns false. Otherwise it returns true. This does not guarantee that the path exists in the hierarchy.

Parameters:

[out]	path	- a vector of level integers specifying which child to descend at each level to reach ijk
[in]	ijk	- discrete coordinates of the octree node at level
[in]	level	- input octree level to be considered
