Description

Class for referencing a set of 'glyphs', that are simple symbols such as arrows or points to be drawn for showing vector directions etc.

Remember that depending on the type of visualization system (POVray, Irrlicht,etc.) this asset might not be supported.

Member Function Documentation

◆ Reserve()

void chrono::ChGlyphs::Reserve ( unsigned int  n_glyphs)

Resize the vectors of data so that memory management is faster than calling SetGlyphPoint() etc.

by starting with zero size vectors that will be inflated when needed..

◆ SetGlyphCoordsys()

void chrono::ChGlyphs::SetGlyphCoordsys ( unsigned int  id,
ChCoordsys<>  mcoord 
)

Fast method to set a glyph for GLYPH_COORDSYS draw mode.

If the id is more than the reserved amount of glyphs (see Reserve() ) the csys are inflated.

◆ SetGlyphPoint()

void chrono::ChGlyphs::SetGlyphPoint ( unsigned int  id,
ChVector<>  mpoint,
ChColor  mcolor = ChColor(1, 0, 0) 
)

Fast method to set a glyph for GLYPH_POINT draw mode.

If the id is more than the reserved amount of glyphs (see Reserve() ) the vectors are inflated.

◆ SetGlyphVector()

void chrono::ChGlyphs::SetGlyphVector ( unsigned int  id,
ChVector<>  mpoint,
ChVector<>  mvector,
ChColor  mcolor = ChColor(1, 0, 0) 
)

Fast method to set a glyph for GLYPH_VECTOR draw mode.

If the id is more than the reserved amount of glyphs (see Reserve() ) the vectors are inflated.
