#include <StelOBJ.hpp>

Data Structures

struct  Material
 Defines a material loaded from an .mtl file. More...
 
struct  MaterialGroup
 Represents a bunch of faces following after each other that use the same material. More...
 
struct  Object
 Represents an OBJ object as defined with the 'o' statement. More...
 
struct  Vertex
 A Vertex struct holds the vertex itself (position), corresponding texture coordinates, normals, tangents and bitangents It does not use Vec3f etc. More...

Member Function Documentation

◆ canUseShortIndices()

bool StelOBJ::canUseShortIndices ( ) const
inline

This can only be done if the model has less vertices than std::numeric_limits<unsigned short>::max()

◆ clearVertexData()

void StelOBJ::clearVertexData ( )

still work). The vertex list can only be restored when the OBJ data is freshly loaded again, so don't do this if you require it later.

This is intended to be used together with splitVertexData(), when you want your own vertex format.

◆ getCentroid()

const Vec3f& StelOBJ::getCentroid ( ) const
inline
Note
This is a very simple centroid calculation which simply accumulates all vertex positions and divides by their number. Most notably, it does not take vertex density into account, so this may not correspond to the geometric center/center of mass of the object

◆ getFaceCount()

unsigned int StelOBJ::getFaceCount ( ) const
inline

We only use triangle faces, so this is always the index count divided by 3.

◆ getShortIndexList()

ShortIndexList StelOBJ::getShortIndexList ( ) const

If this is not possible (canUseShortIndices() returns false), an empty list is returned.

◆ load() [1/2]

bool StelOBJ::load ( const QString &  filename,
const VertexOrder  vertexOrder = VertexOrder::XYZ 
)

Supports .gz decompression, and then calls load(QIODevice) for the actual loading.

Returns
true if load was successful

◆ load() [2/2]

bool StelOBJ::load ( QIODevice &  device,
const QString &  basePath,
const VertexOrder  vertexOrder = VertexOrder::XYZ 
)
Parameters
deviceThe device to load OBJ data from
basePathThe path to use to find additional files (like material definitions)
vertexOrderThe order to use for vertex positions
Returns
true if load was successful

◆ scale()

void StelOBJ::scale ( double  factor)

This may be useful for importing, because many exporters don't handle very large or very small models well. For example, the solar system objects are modeled with kilometer units, and then converted to AU on loading.

◆ splitVertexData()

void StelOBJ::splitVertexData ( V3Vec *  position,
V2Vec *  texCoord = Q_NULLPTR,
V3Vec *  normal = Q_NULLPTR,
V3Vec *  tangent = Q_NULLPTR,
V3Vec *  bitangent = Q_NULLPTR 
) const

If a given parameter vector is null, it is not filled.

◆ transform()

void StelOBJ::transform ( const QMatrix4x4 &  mat,
bool  onlyPosition = false 
)
Parameters
onlyPositionIf true, only the position information is transformed, the normals/tangents are skipped
