Detailed Description

A 2D element which contains other OverlayElement instances.

Remarks
This is a specialisation of OverlayElement for 2D elements that contain other elements. These are also the smallest elements that can be attached directly to an Overlay.
OverlayContainers should be managed using OverlayManager. This class is responsible for instantiating / deleting elements, and also for accepting new types of element from plugins etc.

inherited

Sets the the material this element will use.

Remarks
Different elements will use different materials. One constant about them all though is that a Material used for a OverlayElement must have it's depth checking set to 'off', which means it always gets rendered on top. OGRE will set this flag for you if necessary. What it does mean though is that you should not use the same Material for rendering OverlayElements as standard scene objects. It's fine to use the same textures, just not the same Material.

◆ setMaterialName()

)
inherited

This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It differs from the above function only in what argument(s) it accepts.

bool  debugRenderables = false 
)
inherited

Method to allow a caller to abstractly iterate over the Renderable instances that this MovableObject will add to the render queue when asked, if any.

Parameters
visitorPointer to a class implementing the Renderable::Visitor interface which will be called back for each Renderable which will be queued. Bear in mind that the state of the Renderable instances may not be finalised depending on when you call this.
debugRenderablesIf false, only regular renderables will be visited (those for normal display). If true, debug renderables will be included too.

◆ getTypeName()

virtual const String& Ogre::OverlayElement::getTypeName ( void  ) const
pure virtualinherited

Gets the type name of the element.

All concrete subclasses must implement this.

Implemented in Ogre::PanelOverlayElement, Ogre::TextAreaOverlayElement, and Ogre::BorderPanelOverlayElement.

◆ setCaption()

virtual void Ogre::OverlayElement::setCaption ( const DisplayString text)
virtualinherited

Sets the caption on elements that support it.

Remarks
This property doesn't do something on all elements, just those that support it. However, being a common requirement it is in the top-level interface to avoid having to set it via the StringInterface all the time.

Reimplemented in Ogre::TextAreaOverlayElement.

◆ getCaption()

virtual const DisplayString& Ogre::OverlayElement::getCaption ( void  ) const
virtualinherited

Gets the caption for this element.

◆ setColour()

virtual void Ogre::OverlayElement::setColour ( const ColourValue col)
virtualinherited

Sets the colour on elements that support it.

Remarks
This property doesn't do something on all elements, just those that support it. However, being a common requirement it is in the top-level interface to avoid having to set it via the StringInterface all the time.

Reimplemented in Ogre::TextAreaOverlayElement.

◆ getColour()

virtual const ColourValue& Ogre::OverlayElement::getColour ( void  ) const
virtualinherited

Gets the colour for this element.

Reimplemented in Ogre::TextAreaOverlayElement.

◆ setMetricsMode()

virtual void Ogre::OverlayElement::setMetricsMode ( GuiMetricsMode  gmm)
virtualinherited

Tells this element how to interpret the position and dimension values it is given.

Remarks
By default, OverlayElements are positioned and sized according to relative dimensions of the screen. This is to ensure portability between different resolutions when you want things to be positioned and sized the same way across all resolutions. However, sometimes you want things to be sized according to fixed pixels. In order to do this, you can call this method with the parameter GMM_PIXELS. Note that if you then want to place your element relative to the center, right or bottom of it's parent, you will need to use the setHorizontalAlignment and setVerticalAlignment methods.

Reimplemented in Ogre::BorderPanelOverlayElement, and Ogre::TextAreaOverlayElement.

◆ getMetricsMode()

virtual GuiMetricsMode Ogre::OverlayElement::getMetricsMode ( void  ) const
virtualinherited

Retrieves the current settings of how the element metrics are interpreted.

◆ setHorizontalAlignment()

virtual void Ogre::OverlayElement::setHorizontalAlignment ( GuiHorizontalAlignment  gha)
virtualinherited

Sets the horizontal origin for this element.

Remarks
By default, the horizontal origin for a OverlayElement is the left edge of the parent container (or the screen if this is a root element). You can alter this by calling this method, which is especially useful when you want to use pixel-based metrics (see setMetricsMode) since in this mode you can't use relative positioning.
For example, if you were using GMM_PIXELS metrics mode, and you wanted to place a 30x30 pixel crosshair in the center of the screen, you would use GHA_CENTER with a 'left' property of -15.
Note that neither GHA_CENTER or GHA_RIGHT alter the position of the element based on it's width, you have to alter the 'left' to a negative number to do that; all this does is establish the origin. This is because this way you can align multiple things in the center and right with different 'left' offsets for maximum flexibility.

◆ getHorizontalAlignment()

virtual GuiHorizontalAlignment Ogre::OverlayElement::getHorizontalAlignment ( void  ) const
virtualinherited

Gets the horizontal alignment for this element.

◆ setVerticalAlignment()

virtual void Ogre::OverlayElement::setVerticalAlignment ( GuiVerticalAlignment  gva)
virtualinherited

Sets the vertical origin for this element.

Remarks
By default, the vertical origin for a OverlayElement is the top edge of the parent container (or the screen if this is a root element). You can alter this by calling this method, which is especially useful when you want to use pixel-based metrics (see setMetricsMode) since in this mode you can't use relative positioning.
For example, if you were using GMM_PIXELS metrics mode, and you wanted to place a 30x30 pixel crosshair in the center of the screen, you would use GHA_CENTER with a 'top' property of -15.
Note that neither GVA_CENTER or GVA_BOTTOM alter the position of the element based on it's height, you have to alter the 'top' to a negative number to do that; all this does is establish the origin. This is because this way you can align multiple things in the center and bottom with different 'top' offsets for maximum flexibility.

◆ copyParametersTo()

void Ogre::StringInterface::copyParametersTo ( StringInterface dest) const
inlineinherited

Method for copying this object's parameters to another object.

Remarks
This method takes the values of all the object's parameters and tries to set the same values on the destination object. This provides a completely type independent way to copy parameters to other objects. Note that because of the String manipulation involved, this should not be regarded as an efficient process and should be saved for times outside of the rendering loop.
Any unrecognised parameters will be ignored as with setParameter method.
Parameters
destPointer to object to have it's parameters set the same as this object.

References Ogre::StringInterface::setParameter().

◆ cleanupDictionary()

static void Ogre::StringInterface::cleanupDictionary ( )
staticinherited

Cleans up the static 'msDictionary' required to reset Ogre, otherwise the containers are left with invalid pointers, which will lead to a crash as soon as one of the ResourceManager implementers (e.g.

MaterialManager) initializes.

◆ getTechnique()

virtual Technique* Ogre::Renderable::getTechnique ( void  ) const
inlinevirtualinherited

Retrieves a pointer to the Material Technique this renderable object uses.

Remarks
This is to allow Renderables to use a chosen Technique if they wish, otherwise they will use the best Technique available for the Material they are using.

Reimplemented in Ogre::InstanceBatch, Ogre::StaticGeometry::GeometryBucket, and Ogre::SubEntity.

◆ getRenderOperation()

◆ preRender()

virtual bool Ogre::Renderable::preRender ( SceneManager sm,
RenderSystem rsys 
)
inlinevirtualinherited

Called just prior to the Renderable being rendered.

Remarks
OGRE is a queued renderer, so the actual render commands are executed at a later time than the point at which an object is discovered to be visible. This allows ordering & grouping of renders without the discovery process having to be aware of it. It also means OGRE uses declarative render information rather than immediate mode rendering - this is very useful in that certain effects and processes can automatically be applied to a wide range of scenes, but the downside is that special cases are more difficult to handle, because there is not the declared state to cope with it.
This method allows a Renderable to do something special at the actual point of rendering if it wishes to. When this method is called, all the material render state as declared by this Renderable has already been set, all that is left to do is to bind the buffers and perform the render. The Renderable may modify render state itself if it wants to (and restore it in the postRender call) before the automated render happens, or by returning 'false' from this method can actually suppress the automatic render and perform one of its own.
Returns
true if the automatic render should proceed, false to skip it on the assumption that the Renderable has done it manually.

Reimplemented in Ogre::BillboardChain.

◆ postRender()

virtual void Ogre::Renderable::postRender ( SceneManager sm,
RenderSystem rsys 
)
inlinevirtualinherited

Called immediately after the Renderable has been rendered.

◆ getNumWorldTransforms()

virtual unsigned short Ogre::Renderable::getNumWorldTransforms ( void  ) const
inlinevirtualinherited

Returns the number of world transform matrices this renderable requires.

Remarks
When a renderable uses vertex blending, it uses multiple world matrices instead of a single one. Each vertex sent to the pipeline can reference one or more matrices in this list with given weights. If a renderable does not use vertex blending this method returns 1, which is the default for simplicity.

Reimplemented in Ogre::BorderRenderable, Ogre::SubEntity, Ogre::BaseInstanceBatchVTF, Ogre::InstanceBatchHW, and Ogre::InstanceBatchShader.

◆ setUseIdentityProjection()

void Ogre::Renderable::setUseIdentityProjection ( bool  useIdentityProjection)
inlineinherited

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

Remarks
Usually Renderable objects 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. Normal renderables need not change this. The default is false.

Renderable::getUseIdentityProjection

◆ getUseIdentityProjection()

bool Ogre::Renderable::getUseIdentityProjection ( void  ) const
inlineinherited

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

Remarks
Usually Renderable objects 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. Normal renderables need not change this.
See also
Renderable::setUseIdentityProjection

◆ setUseIdentityView()

void Ogre::Renderable::setUseIdentityView ( bool  useIdentityView)
inlineinherited

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

Remarks
Usually Renderable objects 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. Normal renderables need not change this. The default is false.

Renderable::getUseIdentityView

◆ getUseIdentityView()

bool Ogre::Renderable::getUseIdentityView ( void  ) const
inlineinherited

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

Remarks
Usually Renderable objects 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.

◆ getCastsShadows()

virtual bool Ogre::Renderable::getCastsShadows ( void  ) const
inlinevirtualinherited

Method which reports whether this renderable would normally cast a shadow.

Remarks
Subclasses should override this if they could have been used to generate a shadow.

Reimplemented in Ogre::SubEntity, and Ogre::StaticGeometry::GeometryBucket.

◆ setCustomParameter()

void Ogre::Renderable::setCustomParameter ( size_t  index,
const Vector4 value 
)
inlineinherited

Sets a custom parameter for this Renderable, which may be used to drive calculations for this specific Renderable, like GPU program parameters.

Remarks
Calling this method simply associates a numeric index with a 4-dimensional value for this specific Renderable. This is most useful if the material which this Renderable uses a vertex or fragment program, and has an ACT_CUSTOM parameter entry. This parameter entry can refer to the index you specify as part of this call, thereby mapping a custom parameter for this renderable to a program parameter.
Parameters
indexThe index with which to associate the value. Note that this does not have to start at 0, and can include gaps. It also has no direct correlation with a GPU program parameter index - the mapping between the two is performed by the ACT_CUSTOM entry, if that is used.
valueThe value to associate.

◆ removeCustomParameter()

void Ogre::Renderable::removeCustomParameter ( size_t  index)
inlineinherited

See also
setCustomParameter for full details.

◆ getCustomParameter()

◆ _updateCustomGpuParameter()

virtual void Ogre::Renderable::_updateCustomGpuParameter ( const GpuProgramParameters::AutoConstantEntry constantEntry,
GpuProgramParameters params 
) const
inlinevirtualinherited

Update a custom GpuProgramParameters constant which is derived from information only this Renderable knows.

Remarks
This method allows a Renderable to map in a custom GPU program parameter based on it's own data. This is represented by a GPU auto parameter of ACT_CUSTOM, and to allow there to be more than one of these per Renderable, the 'data' field on the auto parameter will identify which parameter is being updated. The implementation of this method must identify the parameter being updated, and call a 'setConstant' method on the passed in GpuProgramParameters object, using the details provided in the incoming auto constant setting to identify the index at which to set the parameter.
You do not need to override this method if you're using the standard sets of data associated with the Renderable as provided by setCustomParameter and getCustomParameter. By default, the implementation will map from the value indexed by the 'constantEntry.data' parameter to a value previously set by setCustomParameter. But custom Renderables are free to override this if they want, in any case.
Parameters
constantEntryThe auto constant entry referring to the parameter being updated
paramsThe parameters object which this method should call to set the updated parameters.

Reimplemented in Ogre::SubEntity.
