Member Function Documentation

void getDrawData	(	void *	geom,
		MDrawData &	data
	)

Search for all occurrences

Sets up draw data for the shape.

The draw data is meant to be a light weight class which can be used to pass geometry data through draw requests.

Parameters:

[in]	geom	the geometry necessary to draw the shape
[out]	data	the draw data to be initialized

void getDrawRequests	(	const MDrawInfo &	info,
		bool	objectAndActiveOnly,
		MDrawRequestQueue &	queue
	)		[virtual]

Search for all occurrences

This routine must be overriden if the shape is to be drawn in the interactive display.

This function places drawing requests on maya's drawing queue and is called whenever the view is refreshed and the shape needs to be redrawn.

Parameters:

[in]	info	Drawing state information.
[in]	objectAndActiveOnly	Used to determine if draw requests for components need to be supplied. If false, some or all components are active and draw requests must be built for all components.
[out]	queue	Queue on which to place the draw request.

Examples:

apiMeshShapeUI.h, apiSimpleShapeUI.h, and quadricShape.cpp.

void draw	(	const MDrawRequest &	request,
		M3dView &	view
	)		const [virtual]

Search for all occurrences

This routine must be overriden if the shape is to be drawn in the interactive display.

Maya will call this routine with requests that have been previously added to the drawing queue.

Parameters:

[in]	request	the drawing request
[in]	view	the interactive 3d view in which to draw

Examples:

apiMeshShapeUI.h, apiSimpleShapeUI.h, and quadricShape.cpp.

bool select	(	MSelectInfo &	selectInfo,
		MSelectionList &	selectionList,
		MPointArray &	worldSpaceSelectPts
	)		const [virtual]

Search for all occurrences

This routine must be overriden if the shape is to support interactive object and/or component selection.

The implementation of this method should call selectInfo.addSelection with information about the selected item and its selection mask. For single click selection, detected using the selectInfo.singleSection() method, the hit point should also be passed as an argument to selectInfo.addSelection.

Parameters:

[in]	selectInfo	the Selection state information.
[out]	selectionList	List of items selected by this method. Do not update directly: use MSelectInfo::addSelection instead.
[out]	worldSpaceSelectPts	List of points used to sort corresponding selections in single-select mode. (Closest to camera wins.) Do not update directly: use MSelectInfo::addSelection instead.

Returns:

• true something was selected
• false nothing was selected

Examples:

apiMeshShapeUI.h, apiSimpleShapeUI.h, and quadricShape.cpp.

bool canDrawUV

(

)

const [virtual]

Search for all occurrences

Called by Maya to determine if this surface shape supports UV drawing.

Returns:

true if the shape supports UV drawing, false otherwise.

Examples:

apiMeshShapeUI.h.

void drawUV	(	M3dView &	view,
		const MTextureEditorDrawInfo &	info
	)		const [virtual]

Search for all occurrences

This method is called when the surface shape is selected and the texture view is open.

Users should override this method if their custom shape supports UVs.

Parameters:

[in]	view	Texture view in which to draw UVs.
[in]	info	Drawing parameters.

Examples:

apiMeshShapeUI.h.

bool selectUV	(	M3dView &	view,
		MPxSurfaceShapeUI::UVSelectionType	selType,
		int	xmin,
		int	ymin,
		int	xmax,
		int	ymax,
		bool	singleSelect,
		MSelectionList &	selList
	)		const [virtual]

Search for all occurrences

This method is called when the user performs a selection within the texture view.

The method is called only when the surface shape is member of the active selection list.

Maya provides the current viewport instance, the type of the selection, the extents of the selection rectangle (in viewport coordinates), and if the selection mode is single selection. The API user is expected to fill the selection list and return a result of true if 'something was selected'.

To properly use this method, you must make sure that you have a valid component type that Maya can recognize. Selection tests can be done using a pick buffer or by spatially determining the selected objects.

Important Currently Maya does not know how to manipulate custom UV components. This method only provides the facilities to visualize what has been selected in the viewport. The API user is responsible for implementing commands that can manipulate the currently selected UVs.

Parameters:

[in]	view	the texture drawing view
[in]	selType	the selection type
[in]	xmin	minimum x coordinate value of the selection rectangle.
[in]	ymin	minimum y coordinate value of the selection rectangle.
[in]	xmax	maximum x coordinate value of the selection rectangle.
[in]	ymax	maximum y coordinate value of the selection rectangle.
[in]	singleSelect	indicates if the user is in single selection mode.
[out]	selList	the selection list to be populated.

Returns:

true if something was selected, false otherwise.

MPxSurfaceShape * surfaceShape

(

)

const

Returns the non-ui shape associated with current instance of this class.

Returns:

The non ui shape object

MMaterial material

(

MDagPath &

path

)

const

Search for all occurrences

Returns the material associated with this shape.

The user must supply a DAG path as a shape can have several materials if instanced.

Parameters:

[in]

path

the path for which to get the material

Returns:

The material associated with this shape

Examples:

apiMeshShapeUI.cpp, apiSimpleShapeUI.cpp, and quadricShape.cpp.

MPxSurfaceShapeUI * surfaceShapeUI	(	const MDagPath &	path,
		MStatus *	ReturnStatus = NULL
	)		[static]

Search for all occurrences

This is a static method that can be used to find the corresponding MPxSurfaceShapeUI for the specified path.

If an MPxSurfaceShapeUI does not exist then one is created.

Important This function can only be used for custom surface shapes and the function will return NULL if the provided path is not a custom surface shape.

Parameters:

[in]	path	The full path to a surface shape, including the shape.
[out]	ReturnStatus	The return status. MS::kSuccess The method was successful. MS::kInvalidObjectType The specified object is not a custom surface shape.

Returns:

The pointer to an MPxSurfaceShapeUI instance.

const char * className

(

)

[static]

Search for all occurrences

Returns the name of this class.

Returns:

The name of this class.
