in the 2-d scene graph.


Constructor & Destructor Documentation

CardMaker ( string  name)

Member Function Documentation

Removes the node specified by an earlier call to set_source_geometry().

Generates a GeomNode that renders the specified geometry.

reset ( )

Resets all the parameters to their initial defaults.

setColor ( VBase4 const  color)

Sets the color of the card.

setColor ( float  r,
float  g,
float  b,
float  a 
)

Sets the color of the card.

setFrame ( Point3 const  ll,
Point3 const  lr,
Point3 const  ur,
Point3 const  ul 
)

Sets the size of the card.

setFrame ( VBase4 const  frame)

Sets the size of the card.

setFrame ( float  left,
float  right,
float  bottom,
float  top 
)

Sets the size of the card.

Sets the card to (-1,1,-1,1), which is appropriate if you plan to parent it to render2d and use it as a fullscreen quad.

setHas3dUvs ( bool  flag)

Sets the flag indicating whether vertices will be generated with 3-component UVW's (true) or 2-component UV's (the default, false).

Normally, this will be implicitly set by setting the uv_range.

setHasNormals ( bool  flag)

Sets the flag indicating whether vertices will be generated with normals or not.

Normals are required if you intend to enable lighting on the card, but are just wasted space and bandwidth otherwise, so there is a (slight) optimization for disabling them. If enabled, the normals will be generated perpendicular to the card's face.

setHasUvs ( bool  flag)

Sets the flag indicating whether vertices will be generated with UV's or not.

setSourceGeometry ( PandaNode  node,
VBase4 const  frame 
)

Sets a node that will be copied (and scaled and translated) to generate the frame, instead of generating a new polygon.

The node may contain arbitrary geometry that describes a flat polygon contained within the indicated left, right, bottom, top frame.

When generate() is called, the geometry in this node will be scaled and translated appropriately to give it the size and aspect ratio specified by set_frame().

setUvRange ( Point2 const  ll,
Point2 const  ur 
)

Sets the range of UV's that will be applied to the vertices.

If set_has_uvs() is true (as it is by default), the vertices will be generated with the indicated range of UV's, which will be useful if a texture is applied.

setUvRange ( Point2 const  ll,
Point2 const  lr,
Point2 const  ur,
Point2 const  ul 
)

Sets the range of UV's that will be applied to the vertices.

If set_has_uvs() is true (as it is by default), the vertices will be generated with the indicated range of UV's, which will be useful if a texture is applied.

setUvRange ( Point3 const  ll,
Point3 const  lr,
Point3 const  ur,
Point3 const  ul 
)

Sets the range of UV's that will be applied to the vertices.

If set_has_uvs() is true (as it is by default), the vertices will be generated with the indicated range of UV's, which will be useful if a texture is applied.

setUvRange ( Vec4 const  x,
Vec4 const  y,
Vec4 const  z 
)

Sets the range of UV's that will be applied to the vertices.

If set_has_uvs() is true (as it is by default), the vertices will be generated with the indicated range of UV's, which will be useful if a texture is applied.

setUvRange ( Texture const  tex)

Sets the range of UV's that will be applied to the vertices appropriately to show the non-pad region of the texture.

setUvRangeCube ( int  face)

Sets the range of UV's that will be applied to the vertices appropriately for a cube-map face.
