Detailed Description

Drawable 2D or 3D ring.

Encapsulates vertex and index buffers needed to draw a ring. These are generated as needed any time ring parameters change.

The ring is a flat circle with a hole in center formed by a circular grid with multiple loops each composed of multiple slices.

Rings are constructed by StelGeometryBuilder functions buildRingTextured(), and buildRing2D().

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

StelGeometryRing::~StelGeometryRing ( )

inline

Destroy the ring, freeing vertex and index buffers.

Definition at line 423 of file StelGeometryBuilder.hpp.

Draw the ring.

Parameters

renderer	Renderer to draw the ring.
projector	Projector to project the vertices, if any. Not used for 2D rings.

void StelGeometryRing::setFlipFaces ( const bool flipFaces )

inline

Should the ring be flipped to face the opposite side?

Definition at line 493 of file StelGeometryBuilder.hpp.

void StelGeometryRing::setInnerOuterRadius	(	const float	inner,
		const float	outer
	)

inline

Set inner and outer radius of the ring.

Parameters

inner	Inner radius. Must be greater than zero.
outer	Outer radius. Must be greater than the inner radius.

Definition at line 457 of file StelGeometryBuilder.hpp.

void StelGeometryRing::setOffset ( const Vec3f offset )

inline

Set offset (position) of the ring (for 2D rings, the Z coordinate is ignored).

Definition at line 502 of file StelGeometryBuilder.hpp.

void StelGeometryRing::setResolution	(	const int	slices,
		const int	loops
	)

inline

Set resolution (detail) of the ring.

Higher values result in more detail, but also higher resource usage.

Parameters

slices	Number of slices/subdivisions. E.g. 3 is a triangle, 5 a pentagon, etc. Must be at least 3 and at most 4096.
loops	Number of concentric loops in the ring. Must be at least 1.
