Description

Base class for a visual model which encapsulates a set of visual shapes.

Visual models can be instantiated and shared among different Chrono physics items.

#include <ChVisualModel.h>

Public Types
typedef std::pair< std::shared_ptr< ChVisualShape >, ChFrame<> >	ShapeInstance
	A ShapeInstance is a pair of a (shared) shape and its position in the model.

Public Member Functions
void	AddShape (std::shared_ptr< ChVisualShape > shape, const ChFrame<> &frame=ChFrame<>())
	Add a visual shape with specified position within the model. More...

void	AddShapeFEA (std::shared_ptr< ChVisualShapeFEA > shapeFEA)
	Add visual shapes for an FEA mesh to this model.

int	GetNumShapes () const
	Get the number of visual shapes in the model.

const std::vector< ShapeInstance > &	GetShapes () const
	Get the visual shapes in the model.

std::shared_ptr< ChVisualShape >	GetShape (unsigned int i) const
	Get the specified visual shape in the model.

int	GetNumShapesFEA () const
	Get the number of visual shapes in the model.

const std::vector< std::shared_ptr< ChVisualShapeFEA > > &	GetShapesFEA () const
	Get the FEA visualization shapes in the model.

std::shared_ptr< ChVisualShapeFEA >	GetShapeFEA (unsigned int i) const
	Get the specified FEA visualization object in the model.

const ChFrame &	GetShapeFrame (unsigned int i) const
	Get the coordinate frame of the specified visual shape in the model (relative to the model frame).

void	Clear ()
	Erase all shapes in this model.

void	Erase (std::shared_ptr< ChVisualShape > shape)
	Erase the specified visual shape from this model.
