Detailed Description

The Switch grouping node traverses zero or one of the nodes specified in the choice field.

The whichChoice field specifies the index of the child to traverse, with the first child having index 0. If whichChoice is less than zero or greater than the number of nodes in the choice field, nothing is chosen.

All nodes under a Switch continue to receive and send events regardless of the value of whichChoice. For example, if an active TimeSensor is contained within an inactive choice of an Switch, the TimeSensor sends events regardless of the Switch's state.

The bboxCenter and bboxSize fields specify a bounding box that encloses the Switch node's children. This is a hint that may be used for optimization purposes. The results are undefined if the specified bounding box is smaller than the actual bounding box of the child with the largest bounding box at any time. A default bboxSize value, (-1, -1, -1), implies that the bounding box is not specified and, if needed, is calculated by the browser.

Member Function Documentation

◆ closestPoint()

void Switch::closestPoint ( const Vec3f &  p,
NodeIntersectResult result 
)
virtual

Find closest point on Node to p.

Calls closestPoint for the same child as the one that should be rendered.

Parameters
pThe point to find the closest point to.
resultA struct containing various results of closest points such as which geometries the closest points where detected on.

Reimplemented from H3D::X3DGroupingNode.

References H3D::X3DGroupingNode::children, H3D::Node::closestPoint(), and whichChoice.

◆ lineIntersect()

bool Switch::lineIntersect ( const Vec3f &  from,
const Vec3f &  to,
LineIntersectResult result 
)
virtual

Detect intersection between a line segment and a Node.

Calls lineIntersect for the same child as the one that should be rendered.

Parameters
fromThe start of the line segment.
toThe end of the line segment.
resultContains info about the closest intersection for every object that intersects the line.
Returns
true if intersected, false otherwise.

Reimplemented from H3D::X3DGroupingNode.

References H3D::X3DGroupingNode::children, H3D::Node::lineIntersect(), and whichChoice.

◆ movingSphereIntersect()

bool Switch::movingSphereIntersect ( H3DFloat  radius,
const Vec3f &  from,
const Vec3f &  to,
NodeIntersectResult result 
)
virtual

Detect collision between a moving sphere and the Node.

Calls movingSphereIntersect for the same child as the one that should be rendered.

Parameters
radiusThe radius of the sphere
fromThe start position of the sphere
toThe end position of the sphere.
resultA struct containing various results of intersections such as which geometries intersected the moving sphere.
Returns
true if intersected, false otherwise.

Reimplemented from H3D::X3DGroupingNode.

References H3D::X3DGroupingNode::children, H3D::Node::movingSphereIntersect(), and whichChoice.

◆ whichChoice

H3DUniquePtr< SFInt32 > H3D::Switch::whichChoice

The whichChoice field specifies the index of the child to traverse, with the first child having index 0.

If whichChoice is less than zero or greater than the number of nodes in the choice field, nothing is chosen.
