Detailed Description

Provides functions to draw circle arcs using StelRenderer.

Performance could be improved if drawXXXCircleArc returned a list of vertex buffers to draw (perhaps generateXXXCircleArc), which could be cached as long as the StelProjector used is not modified. This would require a way to track the last update when StelProjector was modified.

Example:

// Drawing a single great circle arc
StelCircleArcRenderer(renderer, projector)
    .drawGreatCircleArc(star1, star2, &viewportHalfspace);
// Create a circle arc renderer to draw multiple circle arcs
StelCircleArcRenderer circleArcRenderer = StelCircleArcRenderer(renderer, projector);
circleArcRenderer.drawGreatCircleArc(star1, star2, &viewportHalfspace);
circleArcRenderer.drawGreatCircleArc(star3, star4, &viewportHalfspace);

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

StelCircleArcRenderer::StelCircleArcRenderer	(	StelRenderer *	renderer,
		StelProjectorP	projector
	)

inline

Construct a StelCircleArcRenderer using specified renderer.

Parameters

renderer	Renderer to create adn draw vertex buffers.
projector	Projector to project 3D coordinates to the screen.

Definition at line 58 of file StelCircleArcRenderer.hpp.

StelCircleArcRenderer::StelCircleArcRenderer	(	StelRenderer *	renderer,
		StelProjector *	projector
	)

inline

Construct a StelCircleArcRenderer using specified renderer.

Parameters

renderer	Renderer to create adn draw vertex buffers.
projector	Projector to project 3D coordinates to the screen.

void StelCircleArcRenderer::drawGreatCircleArc	(	const Vec3d &	start,
		const Vec3d &	stop,
		const SphericalCap *	clippingCap = `NULL`,
		void()(const Vec3d &screenPos, const Vec3d &direction, void userData)	viewportEdgeIntersectCallback = `NULL`,
		void *	userData = `NULL`
	)

inline

Draw a great circle arc between points start and stop.

The angle between start and stop must be < 180 deg.

The line will look smooth, even for non linear distortion. Each time the small circle crosses the edge of the viewport, viewportEdgeIntersectCallback is called with the screen 2d position of the intersection, normalized direction of the currently drawn arc toward the inside of the viewport, and any extra user specified data.

Parameters

start	Start point of the arc.
stop	End point of the arc.
clippingCap	if not NULL, try to clip part of the arc outside the cap.
viewportEdgeIntersectCallback	Callback called on intersection with viewportEdge.
userData	User-defined data passed to viewportEdgeIntersectCallback.

void StelCircleArcRenderer::drawGreatCircleArcs	(	const QVector< Vec3d > &	points,
		const PrimitiveType	primitiveType,
		const SphericalCap *	clippingCap
	)

inline

Draw a series of great circle arcs between specified points.

primitiveType specifies how to interpret the points.

If primitiveType is PrimitiveType_Lines, the arcs are drawn between the first and the second point, third and fourth, and so on. In this case, the number of points must be divisible by 2.

If primitiveType is PrimitiveType_LineStrip, the arcs are drawn between the first and the second point, second and third, third and fourth, and so on.

If primitiveType is PrimitiveType_LineLoop, the arcs are drawn like with PrimitiveType_LineStrip, but there is also an arc between the last and the first point.

The angle between two points of any arc must be < 180 deg.

Parameters

points	Points to use to draw the arcs.
primitiveType	Determines how the points to draw arcs between are chosen (see above). Must be PrimitiveType_Lines, PrimitiveType_LineStrip or PrimitiveType_LineLoop.
clippingCap	If not NULL, try to clip the parts of the arcs outside the cap.

void StelCircleArcRenderer::drawSmallCircleArc	(	const Vec3d &	start,
		const Vec3d &	stop,
		void()(const Vec3d &screenPos, const Vec3d &direction, void userData)	viewportEdgeIntersectCallback,
		void *	userData
	)

inline

Draw a small circle arc between points start and stop.

The rotation point is set by setRotCenter().

The angle between start and stop must be < 180 deg. The line will look smooth, even for non linear distortion. Each time the small circle crosses the edge of the viewport, viewportEdgeIntersectCallback is called with the screen 2d position of the intersection, normalized direction of the currently drawn arc toward the inside of the viewport, and any extra user specified data.

If rotCenter is (0,0,0), the method draws a great circle.

Parameters

start	Start point of the arc.
stop	End point of the arc.
viewportEdgeIntersectCallback	Callback called on intersection with viewportEdge.
userData	User-defined data passed to viewportEdgeIntersectCallback.

Definition at line 199 of file StelCircleArcRenderer.hpp.

void StelCircleArcRenderer::setRotCenter ( const Vec3d center )

inline

Set rotation point to draw a small circle around.
