Detailed Description

See also
Class HelperObject, Class SimpleManipulator, Class IManipulatorMgr, Class INode, Class ViewExp, Class IPoint2, Class Box3

Description:
This is the base class for the development of Manipulator plug-ins. Shown are the methods that need to be implemented by the plug-in. Most of these methods are implemented by the SimpleManipulator class so most developers will not need to use these unless SimpleManipulator is not sufficient.
Data Members:
protected:

INode* mpINode;

The node being manipulated

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ Manipulator()

ManipExport Manipulator ( INode pINode)
inline
Remarks
Constructor. The node data member is initialized to the node passed.
361 { mpINode = pINode; }
INode * mpINode
Definition: manipulator.h:580

Member Function Documentation

◆ IsManipulator()

BOOL IsManipulator ( )
inlinevirtual

Reimplemented from Object.

363 { return TRUE; }

◆ HitTest()

virtual int HitTest ( TimeValue  t,
INode pNode,
int  type,
int  crossing,
int  flags,
IPoint2 pScreenPoint,
ViewExp pVpt 
)
pure virtual
Remarks
This method is called to determine if the specified screen point intersects the manipulator. The method returns nonzero if the item was hit; otherwise 0. This is like the normal HitTest() method in the BaseObject class. The difference is that it needs to log it hits in the viewport SubObjectHitList. It does this using the ManipHitData class defined in Manipulator.h.
Parameters:
TimeValue t

The time to perform the hit test.

INode* pNode

A pointer to the node to test.

int type

The type of hit testing to perform. See Scene and Node Hit Test Types. int crossing

The state of the crossing setting. If TRUE crossing selection is on.

int flags

The hit test flags. See Scene and Node Hit Testing Flags IPoint2 *pScreenPoint

Points to the screen point to test.

ViewExp *pVpt

An interface that may be used to call methods associated with the viewports.
Returns
Nonzero if the item was hit; otherwise 0.

Reimplemented from BaseObject.

Implemented in SimpleManipulator, and MSSimpleManipulatorXtnd.

◆ Display()

virtual int Display ( TimeValue  t,
INode pNode,
ViewExp pVpt,
int  flags 
)
pure virtual
Remarks
This method lines the BaseObject::Display() method and displays the manipulator object.
Parameters:
TimeValue t

The time to display the object.

INode* pNode

Points to the node that is being manipulated by the manipulator.

ViewExp *pVpt

An interface that may be used to call methods associated with the viewports.

int flags

See Display Flags.
Returns
The return value is not currently used.

Reimplemented from BaseObject.

Implemented in SimpleManipulator, and MSSimpleManipulatorXtnd.

◆ GetLocalBoundBox()

virtual void GetLocalBoundBox ( TimeValue  t,
INode inode,
ViewExp vp,
Box3 box 
)
pure virtual
Remarks
Used Internally.

Returns the object space bounding box of the manipulator in the object's local coordinates.
Parameters:
TimeValue t

The time to retrieve the bounding box.

INode* inode

The node that is being manipulated by the manipulator.

ViewExp* vp

An interface that may be used to call methods associated with the viewports.

Box3& box

The bounding box is returned here.

Reimplemented from BaseObject.

Implemented in MSSimpleManipulatorXtnd, and SimpleManipulator.

◆ AlwaysActive()

virtual ManipExport bool AlwaysActive ( )
inlinevirtual
Remarks
This method can be used to tell the manipulator management system that this manipulator is always active.
Default Implementation:
{ return false; }
425 { return false; }

◆ GetManipName()

virtual MSTR& GetManipName ( )
pure virtual
Remarks
This method returns the manipulator name string. The SimpleManipulator class uses this method for the tooltip in the viewport.

Implemented in SimpleManipulator.

◆ MouseEntersObject()

virtual DisplayState MouseEntersObject ( TimeValue  t,
ViewExp pVpt,
IPoint2 m,
ManipHitData pHitData 
)
inlinevirtual
Remarks
This method gets called when the mouse first passes over a manipulator object. The return value is used to determine whether a redraw is needed or not. Normally manipulators display in a different color when the mouse is over them, so this should return kFullRedrawNeeded.
Default Implementation:
{return kNoRedrawNeeded; }
Parameters
t- The time to display the object.
pVpt- An interface that may be used to call methods associated with the viewports.
&m- The location of the tooltip.
*pHitData- A pointer to the hitdata containing information on which manipulator was hit.
Returns
The display state indicating whether no redraw, a full redraw, or a post redraw is needed.

Reimplemented in SimpleManipulator.

◆ MouseLeavesObject()

virtual DisplayState MouseLeavesObject ( TimeValue  t,
ViewExp pVpt,
IPoint2 m,
ManipHitData pHitData 
)
inlinevirtual
Remarks
This method gets called when the mouse leaves the manipulator object. The return value is used to determine whether a redraw is needed or not. Normally manipulators display in a different color when the mouse is over them, so this should return kFullRedrawNeeded.
Default Implementation:
{return kNoRedrawNeeded; }
Parameters
t- The time to display the object.
*pVpt- An interface that may be used to call methods associated with the viewports.
&m- The location of the tooltip.

*pHitData- A pointer to the hitdata containing information on which manipulator was hit.
Returns
The display state indicating whether no redraw, a full redraw, or a post redraw is needed.

Reimplemented in SimpleManipulator.

◆ OnMouseMove()

virtual void OnMouseMove ( TimeValue  t,
ViewExp pVpt,
IPoint2 m,
DWORD  flags,
ManipHitData pHitData 
)
inlinevirtual
Remarks
This method gets called when the mouse is pressed down and moves within the manipulator context. It is the method that does the actual manipulator. It is up to the manipulator code to turn the mouse position into a new value for the parameter(s) being manipulated.
Parameters:
TimeValue t

The time to display the object.

ViewExp* pVpt

An interface that may be used to call methods associated with the viewports.

IPoint2& m

The location of the tooltip.

DWORD flags

Not used, should be set to 0.

ManipHitData* pHitData

A pointer to the hitdata containing information on which manipulator was hit.
Default Implementation:
{ }

Reimplemented in MSSimpleManipulatorXtnd, MSPluginSimpleManipulator, and SimpleManipulator.

Remarks
This method gets called when the mouse buttons is first pressed down within the manipulator context.
Parameters:
TimeValue t

The time to display the object.

ViewExp* pVpt

An interface that may be used to call methods associated with the viewports.
