Detailed Description

Class providing a much simplified interface to generating manual objects with custom geometry.

Remarks
Building one-off geometry objects manually usually requires getting down and dirty with the vertex buffer and vertex declaration API, which some people find a steep learning curve. This class gives you a simpler interface specifically for the purpose of building a 3D object simply and quickly. Note that if you intend to instance your object you will still need to become familiar with the Mesh class.
This class draws heavily on the interface for OpenGL immediate-mode (glBegin, glVertex, glNormal etc), since this is generally well-liked by people. There are a couple of differences in the results though - internally this class still builds hardware buffers which can be re-used, so you can render the resulting object multiple times without re-issuing all the same commands again. Secondly, the rendering is not immediate, it is still queued just like all OGRE objects. This makes this object more efficient than the equivalent GL immediate-mode commands, so it's feasible to use it for large objects if you really want to.
To construct some geometry with this object:
  1. If you know roughly how many vertices (and indices, if you use them) you're going to submit, call estimateVertexCount and estimateIndexCount. This is not essential but will make the process more efficient by saving memory reallocations.
  2. Call begin() to begin entering data
  3. For each vertex, call position(), normal(), textureCoord(), colour() to define your vertex data. Note that each time you call position() you start a new vertex. Note that the first vertex defines the components of the vertex - you can't add more after that. For example if you didn't call normal() in the first vertex, you cannot call it in any others. You ought to call the same combination of methods per vertex.
  4. If you want to define triangles (or lines/points) by indexing into the vertex list, you can call index() as many times as you need to define them. If you don't do this, the class will assume you want triangles drawn directly as defined by the vertex list, i.e. non-indexed geometry. Note that stencil shadows are only supported on indexed geometry, and that indexed geometry is a little faster; so you should try to use it.
  5. Call end() to finish entering data.
  6. Optionally repeat the begin-end cycle if you want more geometry using different rendering operation types, or different materials After calling end(), the class will organise the data for that section internally and make it ready to render with. Like any other MovableObject you should attach the object to a SceneNode to make it visible. Other aspects like the relative render order can be controlled using standard MovableObject methods like setRenderQueueGroup.
You can also use beginUpdate() to alter the geometry later on if you wish. If you do this, you should call setDynamic(true) before your first call to begin(), and also consider using estimateVertexCount / estimateIndexCount if your geometry is going to be growing, to avoid buffer recreation during growth.
Note that like all OGRE geometry, triangles should be specified in anti-clockwise winding order (whether you're doing it with just vertices, or using indexes too). That is to say that the front of the face is the one where the vertices are listed in anti-clockwise order.

Member Typedef Documentation

Remarks
We don't pass by reference on purpose (avoid implicit aliasing) We perform frustum culling AND test visibility mask at the same time
Parameters
frustumFrustum to clip against

LightList* Ogre::MovableObject::_getLightList ( )
inlineinherited

Returns a pointer to the current list of lights for this object.

Remarks
You should not modify this list outside of MovableObject::Listener::objectQueryLights (say if you want to use it to implement this method, and use the pointer as a return value) and for reading it's only accurate as at the last frame.

◆ _getManager()

SceneManager* Ogre::MovableObject::_getManager ( void  ) const
inlineinherited

Get the manager of this object, if any (internal use only)

◆ _getObjectData()

ObjectData& Ogre::MovableObject::_getObjectData ( )

inherited

Returns the full transformation of the parent sceneNode or the attachingPoint node.

◆ _notifyAttached()

virtual void Ogre::MovableObject::_notifyAttached ( Node parent)
virtualinherited

Internal method called to notify the object that it has been attached to a node.

Reimplemented in Ogre::v1::Entity, and Ogre::ParticleSystem.

◆ _notifyManager()

void Ogre::MovableObject::_notifyManager ( SceneManager man)
inlineinherited

Notify the object of it's manager (internal use only)

◆ _notifyParentNodeMemoryChanged()

virtual void Ogre::MovableObject::_notifyParentNodeMemoryChanged ( void  )
inlinevirtualinherited

◆ _releaseManualHardwareResources()

void Ogre::v1::ManualObject::_releaseManualHardwareResources ( )
inlinevirtual

◆ _restoreManualHardwareResources()

virtual void Ogre::MovableObject::_restoreManualHardwareResources ( )
inlinevirtualinherited

Notifies the movable object that hardware resources should be restored.

Remarks
Called automatically by RenderSystem if hardware resources were lost and can not be restored using some internal mechanism. Among affected resources are nested shadow renderables, ManualObjects, etc.

◆ _updateRenderQueue()

void Ogre::v1::ManualObject::_updateRenderQueue ( RenderQueue queue,
Camera camera,
const Camera lodCamera 
)
virtual

Reimplemented from Ogre::MovableObject.

◆ addQueryFlags()

void Ogre::MovableObject::addQueryFlags ( uint32  flags)
inlineinherited

As setQueryFlags, except the flags passed as parameters are appended to the existing flags on this object.

◆ addVisibilityFlags()

void Ogre::MovableObject::addVisibilityFlags ( uint32  flags)
inlineinherited

As setVisibilityFlags, except the flags passed as parameters are appended to the existing flags on this object.

◆ begin()

virtual void Ogre::v1::ManualObject::begin ( const String materialName,
OperationType  opType = OT_TRIANGLE_LIST,
const String groupName = ResourceGroupManager::DEFAULT_RESOURCE_GROUP_NAME 
)
virtual

Start defining a part of the object.

Remarks
Each time you call this method, you start a new section of the object with its own material and potentially its own type of rendering operation (triangles, points or lines for example).
Parameters
materialNameThe name of the material to render this part of the object with.
opTypeThe type of operation to use to render.

◆ beginUpdate()

virtual void Ogre::v1::ManualObject::beginUpdate ( size_t  sectionIndex)
virtual

Start the definition of an update to a part of the object.

Remarks
Using this method, you can update an existing section of the object efficiently. You do not have the option of changing the operation type obviously, since it must match the one that was used before.
Note
If your sections are changing size, particularly growing, use estimateVertexCount and estimateIndexCount to pre-size the buffers a little larger than the initial needs to avoid buffer reconstruction.
Parameters
sectionIndexThe index of the section you want to update. The first call to begin() would have created section 0, the second section 1, etc.

◆ buildLightList()

static void Ogre::MovableObject::buildLightList ( const size_t  numNodes,
ObjectData  t,
const LightListInfo globalLightList 
)
staticinherited

SceneManager::buildLightList

Remarks
We don't pass by reference on purpose (avoid implicit aliasing)
Parameters
globalLightListList of lights already culled against all possible frustums and reorganized contiguously for SoA

◆ calculateCastersBox()

static void Ogre::MovableObject::calculateCastersBox ( const size_t  numNodes,
ObjectData  t,
uint32  sceneVisibilityFlags,
AxisAlignedBox outBox 
)
staticinherited

◆ clear()

virtual void Ogre::v1::ManualObject::clear ( void  )
virtual

Completely clear the contents of the object.

Remarks
Clearing the contents of this object and rebuilding from scratch is not the optimal way to manage dynamic vertex data, since the buffers are recreated. If you want to keep the same structure but update the content within that structure, use beginUpdate() instead of clear() begin(). However if you do want to modify the structure from time to time you can do so by clearing and re-specifying the data.

◆ colour() [1/2]

virtual void Ogre::v1::ManualObject::colour ( const ColourValue col)
virtual

Add a vertex colour to a vertex.

◆ colour() [2/2]

virtual void Ogre::v1::ManualObject::colour ( Real  r,
Real  g,
Real  b,
Real  a = 1.0f 
)
virtual

Add a vertex colour to a vertex.

Parameters
r,g,b,aColour components expressed as floating point numbers from 0-1

◆ convertToMesh()

virtual MeshPtr Ogre::v1::ManualObject::convertToMesh ( const String meshName,
const String groupName = ResourceGroupManager::DEFAULT_RESOURCE_GROUP_NAME,
bool  buildShadowMapBuffers = true 
)
virtual

Convert this object to a Mesh.

Remarks
After you've finished building this object, you may convert it to a Mesh if you want in order to be able to create many instances of it in the world (via Entity). This is optional, since this instance can be directly attached to a SceneNode itself, but of course only one instance of it can exist that way.
Note
Only objects which use indexed geometry may be converted to a mesh.
Parameters
meshNameThe name to give the mesh
groupNameThe resource group to create the mesh in
buildShadowMapBuffersTrue to create an optimized copy of the vertex buffers for efficient shadow mapping.

◆ createAnimableValue()

virtual AnimableValuePtr Ogre::AnimableObject::createAnimableValue ( const String valueName)
inlinevirtualinherited

Create a reference-counted AnimableValuePtr for the named value.

Remarks
You can use the returned object to animate a value on this object, using AnimationTrack. Subclasses must override this if they wish to support animation of their values.

Reimplemented in Ogre::Light.

◆ cullFrustum()

static void Ogre::MovableObject::cullFrustum ( const size_t  numNodes,
ObjectData  t,
const Camera frustum,
uint32  sceneVisibilityFlags,
MovableObjectArray outCulledObjects,
const Camera lodCamera

)
staticinherited

SceneManager::cullLights &

See also
MovableObject::cullFrustum Produces the global list of visible lights that is needed in buildLightList

◆ position() [1/2]

virtual void Ogre::v1::ManualObject::position ( const Vector3 pos)
virtual

Add a vertex position, starting a new vertex at the same time.

Remarks
A vertex position is slightly special among the other vertex data methods like normal() and textureCoord(), since calling it indicates the start of a new vertex. All other vertex data methods you call after this are assumed to be adding more information (like normals or texture coordinates) to the last vertex started with position().

◆ position() [2/2]

virtual void Ogre::v1::ManualObject::position ( Real  x,
Real  y,
Real  z 
)
virtual

Add a vertex position, starting a new vertex at the same time.

Remarks

uint32  i2,
uint32  i3,
uint32  i4

virtual

Add a set of 4 vertex indices to construct a quad (out of 2 triangles); this is a shortcut to calling index() 6 times, or triangle() twice.

It's only valid for triangle list operations.

Note
32-bit indexes are not supported on all cards and will only be used when required, if an index is > 65535.
Parameters

◆ removeVisibilityFlags()

void Ogre::MovableObject::removeVisibilityFlags ( uint32  flags)
inlineinherited

As setVisibilityFlags, except the flags passed as parameters are removed from the existing flags on this object.

◆ setCastShadows()

void Ogre::MovableObject::setCastShadows ( bool  enabled)
inlineinherited

Sets whether or not this object will cast shadows.

Remarks
This setting simply allows you to turn on/off shadows for a given object. An object will not cast shadows unless the scene supports it in any case (see SceneManager::setShadowTechnique), and also the material which is in use must also have shadow casting enabled. By default all entities cast shadows. If, however, for some reason you wish to disable this for a single object then you can do so using this method.
Note
This method normally refers to objects which block the light, but since Light is also a subclass of MovableObject, in that context it means whether the light causes shadows itself.

◆ setDefaultLightMask()

static void Ogre::MovableObject::setDefaultLightMask ( uint32  mask)
inlinestaticinherited

Set the default light mask for all future MovableObject instances.

◆ setDefaultQueryFlags()

inlinestaticinherited

Set the default visibility flags for all future MovableObject instances.

◆ setDynamic()

virtual void Ogre::v1::ManualObject::setDynamic ( bool  dyn)
inlinevirtual

Use before defining geometry to indicate that you intend to update the geometry regularly and want the internal structure to reflect that.

◆ setKeepDeclarationOrder()

void Ogre::v1::ManualObject::setKeepDeclarationOrder ( bool  keepOrder)
inline

Sets whether or not to keep the original declaration order when queuing the renderables.

Remarks
This overrides the default behavior of the rendering queue, specifically stating the desired order of rendering. Might result in a performance loss, but lets the user to have more direct control when creating geometry through this class.
Parameters
keepOrderWhether to keep the declaration order or not.

◆ setLightMask()

void Ogre::MovableObject::setLightMask ( uint32  lightMask)
inlineinherited

Remarks
Note for size and performance reasons only one listener per object is allowed.

◆ setLocalAabb()

inherited

Sets the local axis-aligned bounding box for this object.

Remarks
This bounding box is in local coordinates.

const String name,
const String group = ResourceGroupManager::DEFAULT_RESOURCE_GROUP_NAME 
)
virtual

Parameters
subIndexThe index of the subsection to alter
nameThe name of the new material to use

◆ setName()

void Ogre::MovableObject::setName ( const String name)
inlineinherited

Sets a custom name for this node.

Doesn't have to be unique

◆ setQueryFlags()

void Ogre::MovableObject::setQueryFlags ( uint32  flags)
inlineinherited

Sets the query flags for this object.

Remarks
When performing a scene query, this object will be included or excluded according to flags on the object and flags on the query. This is a bitwise value, so only when a bit on these flags is set, will it be included in a query asking for that flag. The meaning of the bits is application-specific.

◆ setReadable()

virtual void Ogre::v1::ManualObject::setReadable ( bool  readable)
inlinevirtual

Use before defining geometry to indicate that you intend to be able to read back from the geometry buffers again down the line (object convertion to v2, physics engine body creation...

◆ setRenderingDistance()

void Ogre::MovableObject::setRenderingDistance ( Real  dist)
inlineinherited

Sets the distance at which the object is no longer rendered.

Parameters
distDistance beyond which the object will not be rendered (the default is FLT_MAX, which means objects are always rendered). Values equal or below zero will be ignored, and cause an assertion in debug mode.

◆ setRenderingMinPixelSize()

void Ogre::MovableObject::setRenderingMinPixelSize ( Real  pixelSize)
inlineinherited

Sets the minimum pixel size an object needs to be in both screen axes in order to be rendered.

Note
Camera::setUseMinPixelSize() needs to be called for this parameter to be used.
Parameters
pixelSizeNumber of minimum pixels (the default is 0, which means objects are always rendered).

◆ setRenderQueueGroup()

virtual void Ogre::MovableObject::setRenderQueueGroup ( uint8  queueID)
virtualinherited

Sets the render queue group this entity will be rendered through.

Remarks
Render queues are grouped to allow you to more tightly control the ordering of rendered objects. If you do not call this method, all Entity objects default to the default queue (RenderQueue::getDefaultQueueGroup), which is fine for most objects. You may want to alter this if you want this entity to always appear in front of other objects, e.g. for a 3D menu system or such.
See RenderQueue for more details.
Parameters
queueIDEnumerated value of the queue group to use. See the enum RenderQueueGroupID for what kind of values can be used here.
Valid render queue ids are between 0 & 254 inclusive

Reimplemented in Ogre::ParticleSystem, Ogre::v1::Entity, Ogre::Decal, Ogre::Light, and Ogre::InternalCubemapProbe.

◆ setShadowRenderingDistance()

void Ogre::MovableObject::setShadowRenderingDistance ( Real  dist)
inlineinherited

Sets the distance at which the object is no longer casting shadows.

Parameters
distDistance beyond which the object will not cast shadows (the default is FLT_MAX, which means objects are always casting shadows). Values equal or below zero will be ignored, and cause an assertion in debug mode.
Note
ShadowRenderingDistance will be clamped to RenderingDistance value
See also
setRenderingDistance

◆ setStatic()

bool Ogre::MovableObject::setStatic ( bool  bStatic)
inherited

Turns this Node into static or dynamic.

Remarks
Switching between dynamic and static has some overhead and forces to update all static scene when converted to static. So don't do it frequently. Static objects are not updated every frame, only when requested explicitly. Use this feature if you plan to have this object unaltered for a very long times
Note all MovableObjects support switching between static & dynamic after they have been created (eg. InstancedEntity)
Changing this attribute will cause to switch the attribute to our parent node, and as a result, all of its other attached entities. Node::setStatic
Returns
True if setStatic made an actual change. False otherwise. Can fail because the object was already static/dynamic, or because switching is not supported

◆ setUseIdentityProjection()

void Ogre::v1::ManualObject::setUseIdentityProjection ( bool  useIdentityProjection)

Sets whether or not to use an 'identity' projection.

Remarks
Usually ManualObjects will use a projection matrix as determined by the active camera. However, if they want they can cancel this out and use an identity projection, which effectively projects in 2D using a {-1, 1} view space. Useful for overlay rendering. Normally you don't need to change this. The default is false.
See also
ManualObject::getUseIdentityProjection

◆ setUseIdentityView()

void Ogre::v1::ManualObject::setUseIdentityView ( bool  useIdentityView)

Sets whether or not to use an 'identity' view.

Remarks
Usually ManualObjects will use a view matrix as determined by the active camera. However, if they want they can cancel this out and use an identity matrix, which means all geometry is assumed to be relative to camera space already. Useful for overlay rendering. Normally you don't need to change this. The default is false.
See also
ManualObject::getUseIdentityView

◆ setVisibilityFlags()

void Ogre::MovableObject::setVisibilityFlags ( uint32  flags)
inlineinherited

Sets the visibility flags for this object.

Remarks
As well as a simple true/false value for visibility (as seen in setVisible), you can also set visibility flags that is applied a binary 'and' with the SceneManager's mask and a compositor node pass. To exclude particular objects from rendering. Changes to reserved visibility flags are ignored (won't take effect).

◆ setVisible()

void Ogre::MovableObject::setVisible ( bool  visible)
inlineinherited

Tells this object whether to be visible or not, if it has a renderable component.

Note
An alternative approach of making an object invisible is to detach it from it's SceneNode, or to remove the SceneNode entirely. Detaching a node means that structurally the scene graph changes. Once this change has taken place, the objects / nodes that have been removed have less overhead to the visibility detection pass than simply making the object invisible, so if you do this and leave the objects out of the tree for a long time, it's faster. However, the act of detaching / reattaching nodes is in itself more expensive than setting an object visibility flag, since in the latter case structural changes are not made. Therefore, small or frequent visibility changes are best done using this method; large or more longer term changes are best done by detaching.
