Detailed Description

select a point by shooting a ray into a graphics window

vtkPointPicker is used to select a point by shooting a ray into a graphics window and intersecting with actor's defining geometry - specifically its points. Beside returning coordinates, actor, and mapper, vtkPointPicker returns the id of the point projecting closest onto the ray (within the specified tolerance). Ties are broken (i.e., multiple points all projecting within the tolerance along the pick ray) by choosing the point closest to the ray.

Member Function Documentation

static vtkPointPicker* vtkPointPicker::New

(

)

[static]

Create an object with Debug turned off, modified time initialized to zero, and reference counting on.

Reimplemented from vtkPicker.

static int vtkPointPicker::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 vtkTypeMacro found in vtkSetGet.h.

Reimplemented from vtkPicker.

virtual int vtkPointPicker::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 vtkTypeMacro found in vtkSetGet.h.

Reimplemented from vtkPicker.

static vtkPointPicker* vtkPointPicker::SafeDownCast

(

vtkObjectBase *

o

)

[static]

Reimplemented from vtkPicker.

virtual vtkObjectBase* vtkPointPicker::NewInstanceInternal

(

)

const [protected, virtual]

Reimplemented from vtkPicker.

vtkPointPicker* vtkPointPicker::NewInstance

(

)

const

Reimplemented from vtkPicker.

void vtkPointPicker::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 vtkPicker.

virtual vtkIdType vtkPointPicker::GetPointId

(

)

[virtual]

Get the id of the picked point. If PointId = -1, nothing was picked.

double vtkPointPicker::IntersectWithLine	(	double	p1[3],
		double	p2[3],
		double	tol,
		vtkAssemblyPath *	path,
		vtkProp3D *	p,
		vtkAbstractMapper3D *	m
	)		[protected, virtual]

Reimplemented from vtkPicker.

void vtkPointPicker::Initialize

(

)

[protected, virtual]

Reimplemented from vtkPicker.
