Remarks:

This method is used to set the parameter of the sphere object.

Parameters:

float rad

The radius.

int segs

The number of segments.

BOOL smooth=TRUE

Smoothing flag.

BOOL genUV=TRUE

Generate UV coordinates flag.

float hemi=0.0f

The hemisphere setting where 0.0 is a full sphere, 0.5 is a half sphere and 1.0 is nonexistent.

BOOL squash=FALSE

If TRUE the number of segments is kept constant when the sphere is a hemisphere. If FALSE the number of segments is truncated based on the hemisphere setting.

BOOL recenter=FALSE

If FALSE, the 'Base To Pivot' setting if off; otherwise it is on.

Sample Code:

The following code demonstrates the creation of the object and the setting of its parameters:

#include "simpobj.h"

GenSphere *gs = (GenSphere *)CreateInstance(GEOMOBJECT_CLASS_ID,

Class_ID(SPHERE_CLASS_ID,0));

gs->SetParams(10.0f/startcomment*rad*endcomment/, 24/startcomment*segs*endcomment/,

TRUE /startcomment*smooth*endcomment/, TRUE/startcomment*genUV*endcomment/);
