Method Detail

delete

public void delete()

selectManipulator

public boolean selectManipulator(java.lang.String pName)

Selects the current manipulator. Having an active manipulator is almost always desired to provide the user with a mechanism to interact with the scene. Interaction is handled intuitively for the various hardware. For touch-screen devices, the view can be manipulated by dragging a finger. For other devices, view manipulation can be detected via the keypad.

Parameters:

pName - The name of the manipulator. Supported manipulators include: "3D" and "animation".

Remark:

The default manipulator at startup depends on what is defined within the dataset configuration. For more information regarding the configuring dataset, see @ref DatasetConfig.

getCurrentManipulator

public java.lang.String getCurrentManipulator()

Returns the current manipulator's name.

editManipulatorObject

public VgManipulator editManipulatorObject(java.lang.String pManipulatorName)

Returns a VgApplication::VgManipulator instance given its name. It returns NULL if the specified manipulator has no public interface.

Parameters:

pManipulatorName - Name of the manipulator to retrieve.

Returns:

A VgApplication::VgManipulator pointer or NULL.
