Detailed Description

abstract class specifies interface to map data to graphics primitives

vtkMapper is an abstract class to specify interface between data and graphics primitives. Subclasses of vtkMapper map data through a lookuptable and control the creation of rendering primitives that interface to the graphics library. The mapping can be controlled by supplying a lookup table and specifying a scalar range to map data through.

There are several important control mechanisms affecting the behavior of this object. The ScalarVisibility flag controls whether scalar data (if any) controls the color of the associated actor(s) that refer to the mapper. The ScalarMode ivar is used to determine whether scalar point data or cell data is used to color the object. By default, point data scalars are used unless there are none, in which cell scalars are used. Or you can explicitly control whether to use point or cell scalar data. Finally, the mapping of scalars through the lookup table varies depending on the setting of the ColorMode flag. See the documentation for the appropriate methods for an explanation.

Another important feature of the mapper is the ability to shift the z-buffer to resolve coincident topology. For example, if you'd like to draw a mesh with some edges a different color, and the edges lie on the mesh, this feature can be useful to get nice looking lines. (See the ResolveCoincidentTopology-related methods.)

Control whether the mapper sets the lookuptable range based on its own ScalarRange, or whether it will use the LookupTable ScalarRange regardless of it's own setting.

By default the Mapper is allowed to set the LookupTable range, but users who are sharing LookupTables between mappers/actors will probably wish to force the mapper to use the LookupTable unchanged.

virtual void vtkMapper::SetScalarMode ( int  )
virtual

Control how the filter works with scalar point data and cell attribute data.

By default (ScalarModeToDefault), the filter will use point data, and if no point data is available, then cell data is used. Alternatively you can explicitly set the filter to use point data (ScalarModeToUsePointData) or cell data (ScalarModeToUseCellData). You can also choose to get the scalars from an array in point field data (ScalarModeToUsePointFieldData) or cell field data (ScalarModeToUseCellFieldData). If scalars are coming from a field data array, you must call SelectColorArray before you call GetColors.

double* vtkMapper::GetBounds ( )
overridevirtual

Return bounding box (array of six doubles) of data expressed as (xmin,xmax, ymin,ymax, zmin,zmax).

Implements vtkAbstractMapper3D.

Reimplemented in vtkPolyDataMapper.

void vtkMapper::GetBounds ( double  bounds[6])
inlineoverridevirtual

Get the bounds for this mapper as (Xmin,Xmax,Ymin,Ymax,Zmin,Zmax).

Reimplemented from vtkAbstractMapper3D.

void vtkMapper::SetRenderTime ( double  time)
inline

This instance variable is used by vtkLODActor to determine which mapper to use.

It is an estimate of the time necessary to render. Setting the render time does not modify the mapper.

Definition at line 437 of file vtkMapper.h.

virtual double vtkMapper::GetRenderTime ( )
virtual
vtkDataSet* vtkMapper::GetInput ( )

Get the input as a vtkDataSet.

This method is overridden in the specialized mapper classes to return more specific data types.

vtkDataSet* vtkMapper::GetInputAsDataSet ( )
inline

Get the input to this mapper as a vtkDataSet, instead of as a more specialized data type that the subclass may return from GetInput().

This method is provided for use in the wrapper languages, C++ programmers should use GetInput() instead.

virtual vtkUnsignedCharArray* vtkMapper::MapScalars ( double  alpha)
virtual

Map the scalars (if there are any scalars and ScalarVisibility is on) through the lookup table, returning an unsigned char RGBA array.

This is typically done as part of the rendering process. The alpha parameter allows the blending of the scalars with an additional alpha (typically which comes from a vtkActor, etc.)

virtual vtkUnsignedCharArray* vtkMapper::MapScalars ( double  alpha,
int cellFlag 
)
virtual

Map the scalars (if there are any scalars and ScalarVisibility is on) through the lookup table, returning an unsigned char RGBA array.

This is typically done as part of the rendering process. The alpha parameter allows the blending of the scalars with an additional alpha (typically which comes from a vtkActor, etc.)

virtual vtkUnsignedCharArray* vtkMapper::MapScalars ( vtkDataSet input,

virtual vtkUnsignedCharArray* vtkMapper::MapScalars ( vtkDataSet input,

This is typically done as part of the rendering process. The alpha parameter allows the blending of the scalars with an additional alpha (typically which comes from a vtkActor, etc.)

virtual bool vtkMapper::GetIsOpaque ( )
virtual

Returns if the mapper does not expect to have translucent geometry.

This may happen when using ColorMode is set to not map scalars i.e. render the scalar array directly as colors and the scalar array has opacity i.e. alpha component. Default implementation simply returns true. Note that even if this method returns true, an actor may treat the geometry as translucent since a constant translucency is set on the property, for example.

Reimplemented in vtkOpenGLPolyDataMapper, vtkCompositePolyDataMapper2, and vtkOpenGLPointGaussianMapper.

virtual bool vtkMapper::GetSupportsSelection ( )
inlinevirtual

WARNING: INTERNAL METHOD - NOT INTENDED FOR GENERAL USE DO NOT USE THIS METHOD OUTSIDE OF THE RENDERING PROCESS Used by vtkHardwareSelector to determine if the prop supports hardware selection.

allows a mapper to update a selections color buffers Called from a prop which in turn is called from the selector

virtual int vtkMapper::CanUseTextureMapForColoring ( vtkDataObject input)
virtual

Returns if we can use texture maps for scalar coloring.

Note this doesn't say we "will" use scalar coloring. It says, if we do use scalar coloring, we will use a texture. When rendering multiblock datasets, if any 2 blocks provide different lookup tables for the scalars, then also we cannot use textures. This case can be handled if required.

Reimplemented in vtkCompositeMapperHelper2.

void vtkMapper::ClearColorArrays ( )

Call to force a rebuild of color result arrays on next MapScalars.

Necessary when using arrays in the case of multiblock data.

vtkUnsignedCharArray* vtkMapper::GetColorMapColors ( )

Provide read access to the color array.

vtkFloatArray* vtkMapper::GetColorCoordinates ( )

Provide read access to the color texture coordinate array.

vtkImageData* vtkMapper::GetColorTextureMap ( )

Provide read access to the color texture array.
