Detailed Description

See also

Class AnimProperty, Class Control, Class InterpCtrlUI.

Description:

This class handles the data storage and user interface for inverse kinematic joint parameters. The default 3ds Max controllers use this data structure to store their IK information. Plug-in controllers don't have to unless they want to.

Note the following is a dialog proc for handling joint parameters that is exported for use by plug-ins.

BOOL CALLBACK JointParamDlgProc(HWND hWnd,UINT message,

WPARAM wParam,LPARAM lParam);

Data Members:

float *min, *max;

Pointers to an array of floats corresponding to the number of degrees of freedom These are the From and To parameters.

float *damping;

Pointer to an array of floating point Damping parameters for each degree of freedom.

float scale;

This is a scale factor applied to the values in the spinner edit fields. This is to make them more sensible to the user. For example a percentage that is stored internally as 0.0 to 1.0 could be presented to the user as 0.0 to 100.0 by using a scale of 100.

DWORD flags;

One or more of the following values:

JNT_XACTIVE

JNT_YACTIVE

JNT_ZACTIVE

JNT_XLIMITED

JNT_YLIMITED

JNT_ZLIMITED

JNT_XEASE

JNT_YEASE

JNT_ZEASE

JNT_LIMITEXACT

JNT_ROLLOPEN

JNT_ROT

JNT_POS

int dofs;

The number of degrees of freedom the plug-in has.

Remarks

Assignment operator.

IsDefault()

CoreExport BOOL IsDefault

(

)

Remarks

Implemented by the System.

Returns TRUE if the current state of the parameters are the defaults.

Save()

CoreExport IOResult Save

(

ISave *

isave

)

Remarks

Implemented by the System.

This method may be called to save the joint properties to the 3ds Max file.

Parameters:

ISave *isave

This pointer may be used to call methods to write data to disk. See Class ISave.

Returns

One of the following values:

IO_OK - The result was acceptable - no errors.

IO_ERROR - This is returned if an error occured.

Load()

CoreExport IOResult Load

(

ILoad *

iload

)

Remarks

Implemented by the System.

This method is called to load the joint properties from the 3ds Max file.

Parameters:

ILoad *iload

This pointer may be used to call methods to load data from disk. See Class ILoad.

Returns

One of the following values:

IO_OK - The result was acceptable - no errors.

IO_ERROR - This is returned if an error occured.

ConstrainInc()

CoreExport float ConstrainInc	(	int	index,
		float	v,
		float	delta
	)

Remarks

Implemented by the System.

This method applies constraints to the given delta based on parameters and the current value v. It uses the current min/max limits to constrain the result: v+delta so that v+delta < max and v+delta > min. It returns a new delta such that the previous will both be TRUE. If ease is turned on, then the values will be slowed down as they approach the limits. It also applies the damping if turned on.

Parameters:

int index

This is the index of the parameter. For example on a position controller the index could be 0 (x), 1 (y), or 2 (z).

float v

The current value of the parameter.

float delta

The increment to apply.

Returns

A new delta value. Usually it will return delta, but if the value was constrained, then the value may be smaller or larger.
