Interface IFace

public interface IFace

A face is used to draw solid objects, by dividing them into triangles. Each face may have one or more co-planar triangles.

Method Summary

void	drawOutline(IDrawing drw) Draw all the triangles on this face, as outlines
void	drawTriangles(IDrawing drw) Draw all the triangles on this face, as filled triangles
void	normalise(IXyz max) This scales all the triangles on a face
double	shade() This returns a crude shading from an overhead light source, be generating a colour derived from the slope of the face relative to the horizontal
IFace	transform(IXyz origin, IXyz vx, IXyz vy, IXyz vz) Apply the given transformation matrix to the face
ITrianglePoints[]	triangles() Return an array of the triangles that make up this face

Method Detail

drawTriangles

void drawTriangles(IDrawing drw)

Draw all the triangles on this face, as filled triangles

drawOutline

void drawOutline(IDrawing drw)

Draw all the triangles on this face, as outlines

normalise

void normalise(IXyz max)

This scales all the triangles on a face

shade

double shade()

This returns a crude shading from an overhead light source, be generating a colour derived from the slope of the face relative to the horizontal

transform

IFace transform(IXyz origin,
                IXyz vx,
                IXyz vy,
                IXyz vz)

Apply the given transformation matrix to the face

triangles

ITrianglePoints[] triangles()

Return an array of the triangles that make up this face
