MPaintMessage Class Reference

#include <MPaintMessage.h>

Class Description

Scene messages.

This class is used to register callbacks for paint related messages.

The addCallback method registers a function that will be executed whenever the specified message occurs. An id is returned and is used to remove the callback.

To remove a callback use MMessage::removeCallback. All callbacks that are registered by a plug-in must be removed by that plug-in when it is unloaded. Failure to do so will result in a fatal error.

Member Typedef Documentation

typedef void(* MPathObjectPlugColorsFunction) (MDagPath &path, MObject &object, MPlug &plug, MColorArray &colors, void *clientData)

Pointer to a message callback which takes a DAG path, an MObject, and a plug.

Parameters
[in]pathA DAG path.
[in]objectAn object, the type of which will depend on the callback using the function.
[in]plugA plug.
[in]colorsAn array of colors.
[in]clientDataPointer to user-defined data supplied when the callback was registered.

Member Function Documentation

MCallbackId addVertexColorCallback ( MPathObjectPlugColorsFunction  func,
void *  clientData = NULL,
MStatus ReturnStatus = NULL 
)
static

Adds a new callback on vertex color paint.

Note: the 'colors' parameter supplied to the callback function contains a color per vertex, even if the type of the component being painted is faces. To interpret the colors when faces are being painted, it will be necessary to query the vertex count of each face and step over that many vertices while iterating the array.

Parameters
[in]functhe callback function
  • path The DAG path of the object being painted
  • object The components (e.g. vertices, faces) being painted
  • plug The plug being painted
  • colors The colors that were applied to the components
  • clientData User defined data passed to the callback function
[in]clientDatauser data that will be passed to the callback function
[out]ReturnStatusStatus code
Returns
Identifier used for removing the callback.
Status Codes:
+ Examples:
const char * className ( )
