Detailed Description

platform-independent render window interaction including picking and frame rate control.

vtkRenderWindowInteractor provides a platform-independent interaction mechanism for mouse/key/time events. It serves as a base class for platform-dependent implementations that handle routing of mouse/key/timer messages to vtkInteractorObserver and its subclasses. vtkRenderWindowInteractor also provides controls for picking, rendering frame rate, and headlights.

vtkRenderWindowInteractor has changed from previous implementations and now serves only as a shell to hold user preferences and route messages to vtkInteractorStyle. Callbacks are available for many events. Platform specific subclasses should provide methods for manipulating timers, TerminateApp, and an event loop if required via Initialize/Start/Enable/Disable.

Warning: vtkRenderWindowInteractor routes events through VTK's command/observer design pattern. That is, when vtkRenderWindowInteractor (actually, one of its subclasses) sees a platform-dependent event, it translates this into a VTK event using the InvokeEvent() method. Then any vtkInteractorObservers registered for that event are expected to respond as appropriate.

These methods are used when a window/widget is being shared by multiple renderers and interactors. This allows a "modal" display where one interactor is active when its data is to be displayed and all other interactors associated with the widget are disabled when their data is not displayed.

◆ CreateTimer()

virtual int vtkRenderWindowInteractor::CreateTimer ( int timerType )

virtual

This class provides two groups of methods for manipulating timers.

The first group (CreateTimer(timerType) and DestroyTimer()) implicitly use an internal timer id (and are present for backward compatibility). The second group (CreateRepeatingTimer(long),CreateOneShotTimer(long), ResetTimer(int),DestroyTimer(int)) use timer ids so multiple timers can be independently managed. In the first group, the CreateTimer() method takes an argument indicating whether the timer is created the first time (timerType==VTKI_TIMER_FIRST) or whether it is being reset (timerType==VTKI_TIMER_UPDATE). (In initial implementations of VTK this was how one shot and repeating timers were managed.) In the second group, the create methods take a timer duration argument (in milliseconds) and return a timer id. Thus the ResetTimer(timerId) and DestroyTimer(timerId) methods take this timer id and operate on the timer as appropriate. Methods are also available for determining

◆ DestroyTimer() [1/2]

virtual int vtkRenderWindowInteractor::DestroyTimer ( )

virtual

◆ CreateRepeatingTimer()

int vtkRenderWindowInteractor::CreateRepeatingTimer ( unsigned long duration )

Create a repeating timer, with the specified duration (in milliseconds).

◆ SetSize() [1/2]

virtual void vtkRenderWindowInteractor::SetSize	(	int	,

virtual

This methods sets the Size ivar of the interactor without actually changing the size of the window.

Normally application programmers would use UpdateSize if anything. This is useful for letting someone else change the size of the rendering window and just letting the interactor know about the change. The current event width/height (if any) is in EventSize (Expose event, for example). Window size is measured in pixels.

When an event occurs, we must determine which Renderer the event occurred within, since one RenderWindow may contain multiple renderers.

◆ GetObserverMediator()

vtkObserverMediator * vtkRenderWindowInteractor::GetObserverMediator ( )

Return the object used to mediate between vtkInteractorObservers contending for resources.

Multiple interactor observers will often request different resources (e.g., cursor shape); the mediator uses a strategy to provide the resource based on priority of the observer plus the particular request (default versus non-default cursor shape).

◆ SetUseTDx()
