Detailed Description

An abstraction of a viewport, i.e.

a rendering region on a render target.

Remarks: A viewport is the meeting of a camera and a rendering surface - the camera renders the scene from a viewpoint, and places its results into some subset of a rendering target, which may be the whole surface or just a part of the surface. Each viewport has a single camera as source and a single target as destination. A camera only has 1 viewport, but a render target may have several. A viewport also has a Z-order, i.e. if there is more than one viewport on a single render target and they overlap, one must obscure the other in some predetermined way.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ Viewport()

Ogre::Viewport::Viewport	(	Camera *	camera,
		RenderTarget *	target,
		Real	left,
		Real	top,
		Real	width,
		Real	height,
		int	ZOrder
	)

The usual constructor.

Parameters

camera	Pointer to a camera to be the source for the image.
target	Pointer to the render target to be the destination for the rendering.
left,top,width,height	Dimensions of the viewport, expressed as a value between 0 and 1. This allows the dimensions to apply irrespective of changes in the target's size: e.g. to fill the whole area, values of 0,0,1,1 are appropriate.
ZOrder	Relative Z-order on the target. Lower = further to the front.

◆ ~Viewport()

virtual Ogre::Viewport::~Viewport ( )

virtual

Default destructor.

Member Function Documentation

◆ _updateDimensions()

void Ogre::Viewport::_updateDimensions ( void )

Notifies the viewport of a possible change in dimensions.

Remarks: Used by the target to update the viewport's dimensions (usually the result of a change in target size).

Note: Internal use by Ogre only.

◆ update()

void Ogre::Viewport::update ( void )

Instructs the viewport to updates its contents.

◆ clear()

void Ogre::Viewport::clear	(	unsigned int	buffers = `FBT_COLOUR\|FBT_DEPTH`,
		const ColourValue &	colour = `ColourValue::Black`,
		Real	depth = `1.0f`,
		unsigned short	stencil = `0`
	)

Instructs the viewport to clear itself, without performing an update.

Remarks: You would not normally call this method when updating the viewport, since the viewport usually clears itself when updating anyway (

See also: Viewport::setClearEveryFrame). However, if you wish you have the option of manually clearing the frame buffer (or elements of it) using this method.

Parameters

buffers	Bitmask identifying which buffer elements to clear
colour	The colour value to clear to, if FBT_COLOUR is included
depth	The depth value to clear to, if FBT_DEPTH is included

◆ setClearEveryFrame()

void Ogre::Viewport::setClearEveryFrame	(	bool	clear,
		unsigned int	buffers = `FBT_COLOUR\|FBT_DEPTH`

Determines whether to clear the viewport before rendering.

Remarks: You can use this method to set which buffers are cleared (if any) before rendering every frame.

Parameters

clear	Whether or not to clear any buffers
buffers	One or more values from FrameBufferType denoting which buffers to clear, if clear is set to true. Note you should not clear the stencil buffer here unless you know what you're doing.

◆ getClearEveryFrame()

bool Ogre::Viewport::getClearEveryFrame ( void ) const

Determines if the viewport is cleared before every frame.

◆ getClearBuffers()

unsigned int Ogre::Viewport::getClearBuffers ( void ) const

Gets which buffers are to be cleared each frame.

◆ setAutoUpdated()

void Ogre::Viewport::setAutoUpdated ( bool autoupdate )

Sets whether this viewport should be automatically updated if Ogre's rendering loop or RenderTarget::update is being used.

Remarks: By default, if you use Ogre's own rendering loop (Root::startRendering) or call RenderTarget::update, all viewports are updated automatically. This method allows you to control that behaviour, if for example you have a viewport which you only want to update periodically.

Parameters

autoupdate If true, the viewport is updated during the automatic render loop or when RenderTarget::update() is called. If false, the viewport is only updated when its update() method is called explicitly.

◆ isAutoUpdated()

bool Ogre::Viewport::isAutoUpdated ( ) const

Gets whether this viewport is automatically updated if Ogre's rendering loop or RenderTarget::update is being used.

◆ setMaterialScheme()

void Ogre::Viewport::setMaterialScheme ( const String & schemeName )

inline

Set the material scheme which the viewport should use.

Remarks: This allows you to tell the system to use a particular material scheme when rendering this viewport, which can involve using different techniques to render your materials.

See also: Technique::setSchemeName

◆ getMaterialScheme()

const String& Ogre::Viewport::getMaterialScheme ( void ) const

inline

Get the material scheme which the viewport should use.

◆ getActualDimensions() [1/2]

Rect Ogre::Viewport::getActualDimensions ( ) const

Access to actual dimensions (based on target size).

◆ getActualDimensions() [2/2]

void Ogre::Viewport::getActualDimensions	(	int &	left,
		int &	top,
		int &	width,
		int &	height
	)		const

Deprecated:

◆ _isUpdated()

bool Ogre::Viewport::_isUpdated ( void ) const

◆ _clearUpdatedFlag()

void Ogre::Viewport::_clearUpdatedFlag ( void )

◆ _getNumRenderedFaces()

unsigned int Ogre::Viewport::_getNumRenderedFaces ( void ) const

Gets the number of rendered faces in the last update.

◆ _getNumRenderedBatches()

unsigned int Ogre::Viewport::_getNumRenderedBatches ( void ) const

Gets the number of rendered batches in the last update.

◆ setOverlaysEnabled()

void Ogre::Viewport::setOverlaysEnabled ( bool enabled )

Tells this viewport whether it should display Overlay objects.

Remarks: Overlay objects are layers which appear on top of the scene. They are created via SceneManager::createOverlay and every viewport displays these by default. However, you probably don't want this if you're using multiple viewports, because one of them is probably a picture-in-picture which is not supposed to have overlays of it's own. In this case you can turn off overlays on this viewport by calling this method.

Parameters

enabled If true, any overlays are displayed, if false they are not.

◆ getOverlaysEnabled()

bool Ogre::Viewport::getOverlaysEnabled ( void ) const

Returns whether or not Overlay objects (created in the SceneManager) are displayed in this viewport.

◆ setSkiesEnabled()

void Ogre::Viewport::setSkiesEnabled ( bool enabled )

Tells this viewport whether it should display skies.

Remarks: Skies are layers which appear on background of the scene. They are created via SceneManager::setSkyBox, SceneManager::setSkyPlane and SceneManager::setSkyDome and every viewport displays these by default. However, you probably don't want this if you're using multiple viewports, because one of them is probably a picture-in-picture which is not supposed to have skies of it's own. In this case you can turn off skies on this viewport by calling this method.

Parameters

enabled If true, any skies are displayed, if false they are not.

◆ getSkiesEnabled()

bool Ogre::Viewport::getSkiesEnabled ( void ) const

Returns whether or not skies (created in the SceneManager) are displayed in this viewport.

◆ setShadowsEnabled()

void Ogre::Viewport::setShadowsEnabled ( bool enabled )

Tells this viewport whether it should display shadows.

Remarks: This setting enables you to disable shadow rendering for a given viewport. The global shadow technique set on SceneManager still controls the type and nature of shadows, but this flag can override the setting so that no shadows are rendered for a given viewport to save processing time where they are not required.

Parameters

enabled If true, any shadows are displayed, if false they are not.

◆ getShadowsEnabled()

bool Ogre::Viewport::getShadowsEnabled ( void ) const

Returns whether or not shadows (defined in the SceneManager) are displayed in this viewport.

◆ setVisibilityMask()

void Ogre::Viewport::setVisibilityMask ( uint32 mask )

inline

Sets a per-viewport visibility mask.

Remarks: The visibility mask is a way to exclude objects from rendering for a given viewport. For each object in the frustum, a check is made between this mask and the objects visibility flags (

See also: MovableObject::setVisibilityFlags), and if a binary 'and' returns zero, the object will not be rendered.

◆ getVisibilityMask()

uint Ogre::Viewport::getVisibilityMask ( void ) const

inline

Gets a per-viewport visibility mask.

See also: Viewport::setVisibilityMask

◆ setRenderQueueInvocationSequenceName()

virtual void Ogre::Viewport::setRenderQueueInvocationSequenceName ( const String & sequenceName )

virtual

Sets the use of a custom RenderQueueInvocationSequence for rendering this target.

Remarks: RenderQueueInvocationSequence instances are managed through Root. By setting this, you are indicating that you wish this RenderTarget to be updated using a custom sequence of render queue invocations, with potentially customised ordering and render state options. You should create the named sequence through Root first, then set the name here.

Parameters

sequenceName The name of the RenderQueueInvocationSequence to use. If you specify a blank string, behaviour will return to the default render queue management.

◆ getRenderQueueInvocationSequenceName()

virtual const String& Ogre::Viewport::getRenderQueueInvocationSequenceName ( void ) const

virtual

Gets the name of the render queue invocation sequence for this target.

◆ _getRenderQueueInvocationSequence()

RenderQueueInvocationSequence* Ogre::Viewport::_getRenderQueueInvocationSequence ( void )

Get the invocation sequence - will return null if using standard.

◆ pointOrientedToScreen() [1/2]

void Ogre::Viewport::pointOrientedToScreen	(	const Vector2 &	v,
		int	orientationMode,
		Vector2 &	outv
	)

Convert oriented input point coordinates to screen coordinates.

◆ pointOrientedToScreen() [2/2]

void Ogre::Viewport::pointOrientedToScreen	(	Real	orientedX,
		Real	orientedY,
		int	orientationMode,
		Real &	screenX,
		Real &	screenY
	)

◆ addListener()

void Ogre::Viewport::addListener ( Listener * l )

Add a listener to this viewport.

◆ removeListener()

void Ogre::Viewport::removeListener ( Listener * l )

Remove a listener to this viewport.

◆ setDrawBuffer()

void Ogre::Viewport::setDrawBuffer ( ColourBufferType colourBuffer )

Sets the draw buffer type for the next frame.

Remarks: Specifies the particular buffer that will be targeted by the render target. Should be used if the render target supports quad buffer stereo. If the render target does not support stereo (ie. left and right), then only back and front will be used.

Parameters

colourBuffer Specifies the particular buffer that will be targeted by the render target.

◆ getDrawBuffer()

ColourBufferType Ogre::Viewport::getDrawBuffer ( ) const

Returns the current colour buffer type for this viewport.
