Detailed Description

An Interface class to access the Viewport Manager.

This Interface allows access to the various components of the Viewport Manager. THis includes finding out how many effects are registered with the system

Member Function Documentation

◆ GetDesc()

FPInterfaceDesc* GetDesc ( )
virtual
Remarks
Returns a pointer to the class which contains the interface metadata.

Implements FPInterface.

◆ GetNumEffects()

virtual int GetNumEffects ( )
pure virtual

Get the number of effects registered with the system.

Returns
The total number of effects

◆ GetActiveEffect()

virtual ReferenceTarget* GetActiveEffect ( )
pure virtual

Get the current active effect.

This effect will implement the IDXDataBridge classes

Returns
A referenceTarget implementing the effect

◆ GetEffectName()

virtual const MCHAR* GetEffectName ( int  i)
pure virtual

Access the UI name for the effect.

Parameters
iAn index of the effect whose name is required
Returns
A MCHAR containing the name

◆ SetViewportEffect()

virtual ReferenceTarget* SetViewportEffect ( int  i)
pure virtual

Set the actual viewport effect to be used.

Parameters
iAn index of the effect to set.
Returns
A pointer to the effect

◆ ActivateEffect()

virtual void ActivateEffect ( MtlBase mtl,
BOOL  State 
)
pure virtual

Turns on the effect based on the material and state supplied.

THis sets the internal flag on the material that tells the system that a DX shader is present

Parameters
*mtlTHe material to activate
StateA boolean value that defines the state of the flag
