Inheritance diagram for CGeometryAccessor:
CGeometryAccessor lets you access the regular geometry data as defined on a mesh or you can configure CGeometryAccessor to subdivide the data in order to obtain a higher level of resolution on the geometry. Be careful, however: the higher the resolution the longer the access time will be.
With CGeometryAccessor you can access regular geometry data such as:
using namespace XSI; Application app; Model root = app.GetActiveSceneRoot(); X3DObject mySphere; root.AddGeometry( L"Sphere", L"MeshSurface", L"", mySphere ); PolygonMesh m = mySphere.GetActivePrimitive().GetGeometry(); // gets a geometry accessor object with default parameters CGeometryAccessor ga = m.GetGeometryAccessor(); // get the number of vertices for each polygons CLongArray pvCount; ga.GetPolygonVerticesCount(pvCount); // get the vertex indices CLongArray vIndices; ga.GetVertexIndices(vIndices); // log all polygon vertex indices LONG nPolyCount = ga.GetPolygonCount(); for (LONG i=0, nOffset=0; i<nPolyCount; i++) { CString strIndices; for ( LONG j=0; j<pvCount[i]; j++ ) { strIndices += CString(vIndices[nOffset+j]); } nOffset += pvCount[i]; app.LogMessage( CString(i) + L":" + strIndices ); }
Example2 : Get the UV values for all triangles of a geometry
using namespace XSI; // Forward declaration PolygonMesh CreateMeshWithUVs( ); // setup a mesh with some UV values PolygonMesh m = CreateMeshWithUVs( ); // gets a geometry accessor object from the new mesh CGeometryAccessor ga = m.GetGeometryAccessor( ); // gets all UVs on the mesh CRefArray uvs = ga.GetUVs( ); // works with the first UV set on the geometry // UV values are stored as a flat list of float values grouped in // triplets (i.e. UVW), first triplet being the values at node 0, etc... ClusterProperty uvProp = uvs[ 0 ]; CFloatArray uvValues; uvProp.GetValues( uvValues ); // retrieve all node indices per triangle on the geometry // nodes are grouped in triplets, first triplet being the nodes for // triangle 0, etc... CLongArray triNodeIds; ga.GetTriangleNodeIndices( triNodeIds ); // loops over triangles and log their UV values Application app; LONG triID = 0; for ( LONG i=0; i<triNodeIds.GetCount( ); i+=3 ) { app.LogMessage( L"Triangle " + CString( triID++ ) ); // loop over each triangle node, use the node id to index into the // UV value array for ( LONG j=0; j<3; j++ ) { LONG nodeId = triNodeIds[ i+j ]; // shift by 3 since the datum size for a UV value is 3 (i.e. UVW) LONG uvIdx = nodeId*3; float u = uvValues[ uvIdx + 0 ]; float v = uvValues[ uvIdx + 1 ]; float w = uvValues[ uvIdx + 2 ]; CString strUVW; strUVW += CString( u ) + L" " + CString( v ) + L" " + CString( w ); app.LogMessage( L" Node " + CString( nodeId ) + L": " + strUVW ); } } PolygonMesh CreateMeshWithUVs( ) { Application app; Model root = app.GetActiveSceneRoot( ); X3DObject myGrid; root.AddGeometry( L"Grid", L"MeshSurface", L"", myGrid ); PolygonMesh m = myGrid.GetActivePrimitive( ).GetGeometry( ); CClusterPropertyBuilder cpb = m.GetClusterPropertyBuilder( ); // add UV properties on the grid ClusterProperty cp = cpb.AddUV( ); float uvws[] = { 0.1f, 0.1f, 0.1f, 0.2f, 0.2f, 0.2f, 0.3f, 0.3f, 0.3f, 0.4f, 0.4f, 0.4f, 0.5f, 0.5f, 0.5f, 0.6f, 0.6f, 0.6f, 0.7f, 0.7f, 0.7f, 0.8f, 0.8f, 0.8f }; // set UV values for the node ids stored in nodeIds LONG nodeIds[ ] = {0,1,2,3,8,9,10,11}; // to demonstrate chunking we set the values 4 at a time LONG nChunk = 4; // set the first 4 UVs cp.SetValues( nodeIds, uvws, nChunk ); // set the last ones // shift nodeIds with a nChunk factor // shift uvws with a nChunk*3 factor, 3 being the datum size of a UV (i.e. UVW) cp.SetValues( &nodeIds[ nChunk ], &uvws[ nChunk*3 ], nChunk ); return m; }
