Detailed Description

This interace accesses the adaptive subdivision properties.

An instance of this interface can be retrieved using the following line of code (assuming 'node' is of type INode*):
static_cast<INodeGIProperties2*>(node->GetInterface(NODEGIPROPERTIES2_INTERFACE))

The adaptive subdivision properties are only used when the object is not using the global mesh settings. When an object is using the global settings, these will also be used for adaptive subdivision.
Here is a description of the adaptive subdivision properties:
GEOMETRIC OBJECTS (affects only geometric objects):

Use Adaptive Subdivision: TRUE indicates that the object uses adaptive subdivision. FALSE indicates that it doesn't.

Mininum Mesh Size: The is the minimum size that adaptive subdivision will subdivide a face. The size of a face is the length of the longest side.

Initial Mesh Size: This is the size of the smallest face that the initial meshing code will subdivide to improve the face shape.

Contrast Threshold: This value which can be from 0 to 1 is the threshold used to determine when a face is subdivided. The contrast is calculated for each light searately. The contrast on a face is effectively calculated like this:
max = max brightness of light shining on the vertices of the face
min = min brightness of light shining on the vertices of the face
contrast = log(max * (max - min) / (max + min) - 0.02 + 1.0) / log(1000.0 - 0.02 + 1) if max is 0 the the contrast is 0.

Member Function Documentation

◆ CopyGIPropertiesFrom() [1/2]

virtual void CopyGIPropertiesFrom ( const INodeGIProperties2 & source )

pure virtual

Copy properties from another interface.

Parameters

[in] source - The interface the properties are copied from.

◆ GIUseAdaptiveSubdivision()

virtual BOOL GIUseAdaptiveSubdivision ( ) const

pure virtual

Returns whether the use adaptive subdivision property is turned on.

This property should be ignored if INodeGIProperties::GIGetUseGlobalMeshSettings() returns TRUE.

Returns: TRUE if the object can be adaptively subdivided. FALSE otherwise.

◆ GIGetMinMeshSize()

virtual float GIGetMinMeshSize ( ) const

pure virtual

Returns the minimum mesh size set for the object.

This property should be ignored if INodeGIProperties::GIGetUseGlobalMeshSettings() returns TRUE.

Returns: The minimum mesh size that adaptive subdivision will produce. The size of a face is the length of the longest side.

◆ GIGetInitialMeshSize()

virtual float GIGetInitialMeshSize ( ) const

pure virtual

Returns the initial mesh size set for the object.

This property should be ignored if INodeGIProperties::GIGetUseGlobalMeshSettings() returns TRUE.

Returns: The size of the smallest face that the initial meshing code will subdivide to improve the face shape. The size of a face in this case is the square-root of the area.

◆ GIGetContrastThreshold()

virtual float GIGetContrastThreshold ( ) const

pure virtual

Returns the contrast threshold for subdivision.

This property should be ignored if INodeGIProperties::GIGetUseGlobalMeshSettings() returns TRUE.

Returns: The threshold, which can be from 0 to 1, used to determine when a face is subdivided. The contrast is calculated for each light searately. The contrast on a face is effectively calculated like this:
max = max brightness of light shining on the vertices of the face
min = min brightness of light shining on the vertices of the face
contrast = log(max * (max - min) / (max + min) - 0.02 + 1.0) / log(1000.0 - 0.02 + 1) if max is 0 the the contrast is 0.

◆ GISetUseAdaptiveSubdivision()

virtual void GISetUseAdaptiveSubdivision ( BOOL useAdaptiveSubdivision )

pure virtual

Set whether the use adaptive subdivision property is turned on.

This property should be ignored if INodeGIProperties::GIGetUseGlobalMeshSettings() returns TRUE.

Parameters

[in] useAdaptiveSubdivision - TRUE if the object can be adaptively subdivided. FALSE otherwise.

◆ GISetMinMeshSize()

virtual void GISetMinMeshSize ( float minMeshSize )

pure virtual

Set the minimum mesh size set for the object.

This property should be ignored if INodeGIProperties::GIGetUseGlobalMeshSettings() returns TRUE.

Parameters

[in] minMeshSize - The minimum mesh size that adaptive subdivision will produce. The size of a face is the length of the longest side.

◆ GISetInitialMeshSize()

virtual void GISetInitialMeshSize ( float initialMeshSize )

pure virtual

Set the initial mesh size set for the object.

This property should be ignored if INodeGIProperties::GIGetUseGlobalMeshSettings() returns TRUE.

Parameters

[in] initialMeshSize - The size of the smallest face that the initial meshing code will subdivide to improve the face shape. The size of a face in this case is the square-root of the area.

◆ GISetContrastThreshold()

virtual void GISetContrastThreshold ( float contrastThreshold )

pure virtual

Set the contrast threshold for subdivision.

This property should be ignored if INodeGIProperties::GIGetUseGlobalMeshSettings() returns TRUE.

Parameters

[in] contrastThreshold - The threshold, which can be from 0 to 1, used to determine when a face is subdivided. The contrast is calculated for each light searately. The contrast on a face is effectively calculated like this:
max = max brightness of light shining on the vertices of the face
min = min brightness of light shining on the vertices of the face
contrast = log(max * (max - min) / (max + min) - 0.02 + 1.0) / log(1000.0 - 0.02 + 1) if max is 0 the the contrast is 0.
