Detailed Description

The ITouchArea graph node interface.

This interface represents an input object in world space (i.e. a "button").

A touch area by itself does not actually have any renderable geometry; instead, it only holds a specific surface shape on which any pointing events are evaluated in 3D space.

In general, a touch area can be in one of 3 available states: "Up", "Down" or "Disabled". For devices that provide a point input method other than a touch screen, such as a mouse, there also exists an additional "Hover" state. Internally, a touch area node acts similar to a Graph::ISwitch node, managing visibility of a subset of its child nodes that are assigned to these states. Depending on the actual state the touch area is in, the respective child node gets activated, and all other ones deactivated. If a child node is not assigned to one of these states, it is left unmanaged.

In addition, it is possible to define a single child node implementing the Graph::ITimeline interface to react on state changes. The assigned timeline will then be started to run up to a given time value set for that state.

◆ GetFrameBufferNodeTarget() [1/2]

virtual IFrameBufferNodeTarget* Murl::Graph::ITouchArea::GetFrameBufferNodeTarget ( )
pure virtual

Get the mutable IFrameBufferNodeTarget container.

This method returns a mutable pointer to the node's IFrameBufferNodeTarget container, which allows to set or query the frame buffer object the touch area object delegates its input to.

Returns
The mutable IFrameBufferNodeTarget container, or null if not available

◆ GetFrameBufferNodeTarget() [2/2]

virtual const IFrameBufferNodeTarget* Murl::Graph::ITouchArea::GetFrameBufferNodeTarget ( ) const
pure virtual

Get the constant IFrameBufferNodeTarget container.

This method returns a constant pointer to the node's IFrameBufferNodeTarget container, which allows to query the frame buffer object the touch area object delegates its input to.

Returns
The constant IFrameBufferNodeTarget container, or null if not available

◆ SetStateNodeId()

virtual Bool Murl::Graph::ITouchArea::SetStateNodeId ( IEnums::ButtonState  state,
const String nodeId 
)
pure virtual

Set the touch area's active node ID for a given state.

Calling this method assigns one of the touch area's nodes to a given internal state. If done so, that node will be activated whenever the touch area changes to this state, and deactivated when it changes to a different state.

Parameters
stateThe internal state to which the given node will be assigned.
nodeIdThe node ID of the node to assign.
Returns
true if successful.

◆ GetStateNodeId()

virtual const String& Murl::Graph::ITouchArea::GetStateNodeId ( IEnums::ButtonState  state) const
pure virtual

Get the ID of the touch area's active node for a given state.

Parameters
stateThe internal state for which to query the assigned node.
Returns
The ID of the assigned node, or an empty string if there is no present assignment for the givent state.

◆ SetStateChildIndex()

virtual Bool Murl::Graph::ITouchArea::SetStateChildIndex ( IEnums::ButtonState  state,
SInt32  childIndex 
)
pure virtual

Set the touch area's active child for a given state.

Calling this method assigns one of the touch area's children to a given internal state. If done so, that child will be activated whenever the touch area changes to this state, and deactivated when it changes to a different state. All children that are not assigned to a specific state behave normally.

As an example, a touch area may have four Graph::IParametersState children representing different colors, each assigned to one of the four possible internal states, and a Graph::PlaneGeometry as an additional fifth child without state assignment. Depending on the touch area's current state, one of these parameter sets will be selected, and the plane geometry will be rendered in different colors.

Parameters
stateThe internal state to which the given child will be assigned.
childIndexThe zero-based index of the child node to assign.
Returns
true if successful.

◆ GetStateChildIndex()

virtual SInt32 Murl::Graph::ITouchArea::GetStateChildIndex ( IEnums::ButtonState  state) const
pure virtual

Get the index of the touch area's active child for a given state.

Parameters
stateThe internal state for which to query the assigned child.
Returns
The zero-based index into the touch area's array of children, or -1 if there is no present assignment for the givent state.

◆ SetStateAnimationTime()

virtual Bool Murl::Graph::ITouchArea::SetStateAnimationTime ( IEnums::ButtonState  state,
