See also

◆ removeQueryFlags()

inline

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

◆ removeVisibilityFlags()

inline

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

◆ resetMeshLod()

void Ogre::MovableObject::resetMeshLod ( )

Sets mCurrentMeshLod to 0.

◆ setCastShadows()

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

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)
inlinestatic

Set the default light mask for all future MovableObject instances.

◆ setDefaultQueryFlags()

static void Ogre::MovableObject::setDefaultQueryFlags ( uint32  flags)
inlinestatic

Set the default query flags for all future MovableObject instances.

◆ setDefaultVisibilityFlags()

static void Ogre::MovableObject::setDefaultVisibilityFlags ( uint32  flags)
inlinestatic

Set the default visibility flags for all future MovableObject instances.

◆ setLightMask()

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

Set a bitwise mask which will filter the lights affecting this object.

Remarks
This mask will be compared against the mask held against Light to determine if a light should affect a given object. By default, this mask is fully set meaning all lights will affect this object

◆ setListener()

void Ogre::MovableObject::setListener ( Listener listener)
inline

Sets a listener for this object.

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

◆ setLocalAabb()

void Ogre::MovableObject::setLocalAabb ( const Aabb  box)

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

Remarks
This bounding box is in local coordinates.

◆ setName()

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

Sets a custom name for this node.

Doesn't have to be unique

◆ setQueryFlags()

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

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.

◆ setRenderingDistance()

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

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)
inline

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)
virtual

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::Light, Ogre::InternalCubemapProbe, Ogre::v1::Entity, and Ogre::Decal.

◆ setShadowRenderingDistance()

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

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)

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.
See also
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

◆ setVisibilityFlags()

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

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)
inline

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.

◆ mGlobalIndex

size_t Ogre::MovableObject::mGlobalIndex

Index in the vector holding this MO reference (could be our parent node, or a global array tracking all movable objecst to avoid memory leaks).

Used for O(1) removals.

Remarks
It is the parent (or our creator) the one that sets this value, not ourselves. Do NOT modify it manually.

◆ mParentIndex

size_t Ogre::MovableObject::mParentIndex

Index in the vector holding this MO reference (could be our parent node, or a global array tracking all movable objecst to avoid memory leaks).

Used for O(1) removals.

Remarks
It is the parent (or our creator) the one that sets this value, not ourselves. Do NOT modify it manually.
