Member Function Documentation

◆ DoStepDynamics()

bool chrono::opengl::ChOpenGLWindow::DoStepDynamics ( double  time_step)

Perform a dynamics step, the user needs to use this so that pausing the simulation works correctly.

Parameters
time_stepintegration step size

◆ getInstance()

static ChOpenGLWindow& chrono::opengl::ChOpenGLWindow::getInstance ( )
inlinestatic

Get the unique instance for the OpenGL window.

Call this function to get a pointer to the window.

◆ GLFWGetVersion()

void chrono::opengl::ChOpenGLWindow::GLFWGetVersion ( GLFWwindow *  main_window)
static

Provides the version of the OpenGL context along with driver information.

Parameters
main_windowA pointer to the window/context

◆ Initialize()

void chrono::opengl::ChOpenGLWindow::Initialize ( int  size_x,
int  size_y,
const char *  title,
ChSystem msystem 
)

Initialize the window and set up the opengl viewer class.

Parameters
size_xWidth of window in pixels
size_yHeight of window in pixels
titleWindow title string
msystemThe ChSystem that is attached to this window

◆ SetCamera()

void chrono::opengl::ChOpenGLWindow::SetCamera ( ChVector<>  pos,
ChVector<>  look,
ChVector<>  up,
float  scale = 0.5f,
float  near_clip_dist = 0.1f,
float  far_clip_dist = 1000.0f 
)
inline

Set the camera position, look at and up vectors.

Parameters
posThe position of the camera
lookThe point that the camera is looking at
upThe up vector associated with the camera

◆ StartDrawLoop()

void chrono::opengl::ChOpenGLWindow::StartDrawLoop ( double  time_step)

This starts the drawing loop and takes control away from the main program.

This function is the easiest way to start rendering.

Parameters
time_stepintegration step size
