Method Detail

createFromMesh

public static RenderObject createFromMesh(PolygonalMesh mesh,
                                          boolean flatNormals,
                                          boolean addEdges)

Creates a RenderObject from a PolygonalMesh, with one group of triangle primitives for faces. Non-triangular faces are replaced by a triangle fan.

Parameters:

mesh - mesh for which the render object is to be created

flatNormals - use "flat" shading normals

addEdges - add edge primitives

Returns:

created RenderObject

createCylinder

public static RenderObject createCylinder(int nSlices,
                                          boolean capped)

Creates a unit cylinder along the z-axis

Parameters:

nSlices - angular resolution

capped - include top/bottom caps

Returns:

RenderObject for rendering a unit cylinder

createCone

public static RenderObject createCone(int nSlices,
                                      boolean capped)

Creates a unit cone along the z-axis

Parameters:

nSlices - angular resolution

capped - include top/bottom caps

Returns:

RenderObject for rendering a cone

createSpindle

public static RenderObject createSpindle(int nSlices,
                                         int nLevels)

Creates a unit spindle along the z-axis

Parameters:

nSlices - angular resolution (longitude)

nLevels - vertical resolution (latitude)

Returns:

RenderObject for rendering a spindle

createOctohedralSphere

public static RenderObject createOctohedralSphere(int divisions)

createSphere

public static RenderObject createSphere(int nSlices,
                                        int nLevels)

Creates a unit sphere centered at the origin

Parameters:

nSlices - angular resolution (longitude)

nLevels - vertical resolution (latitude)

Returns:

RenderObject for rendering a sphere

createAxes

public static RenderObject createAxes(boolean x,
                                      boolean y,
                                      boolean z)

Creates a simple set of axes

Parameters:

x - to include x?

y - to include y?

z - to include z?

Returns:

Render object for rendering axes
