Detailed Description

Utility class which defines the sub-parts of an Entity.

Remarks
Just as meshes are split into submeshes, an Entity is made up of potentially multiple SubMeshes. These are mainly here to provide the link between the Material which the SubEntity uses (which may be the default Material for the SubMesh or may have been changed for this object) and the SubMesh data.
The SubEntity also allows the application some flexibility in the material properties for this section of a particular instance of this Mesh, e.g. tinting the windows on a car model.
SubEntity instances are never created manually. They are created at the same time as their parent Entity by the SceneManager method createEntity.

bool Ogre::Renderable::getUseIdentityProjection ( void  ) const
inlineinherited

Returns whether or not to use an 'identity' projection.

Remarks
Usually Renderable objects will use a projection matrix as determined by the active camera. However, if they want they can cancel this out and use an identity projection, which effectively projects in 2D using a {-1, 1} view space. Useful for overlay rendering. Normal renderables need not change this.

Renderable::setUseIdentityProjection

Definition at line 178 of file OgreRenderable.h.

bool Ogre::Renderable::getUseIdentityView ( void  ) const
inlineinherited

Returns whether or not to use an 'identity' view.

Remarks
Usually Renderable objects will use a view matrix as determined by the active camera. However, if they want they can cancel this out and use an identity matrix, which means all geometry is assumed to be relative to camera space already. Useful for overlay rendering. Normal renderables need not change this.

protected

Internal method for preparing this Entity for use in animation.

virtual bool Ogre::Renderable::preRender ( SceneManager sm,

)
inlinevirtualinherited

Called just prior to the Renderable being rendered.

Remarks
OGRE is a queued renderer, so the actual render commands are executed at a later time than the point at which an object is discovered to be visible. This allows ordering & grouping of renders without the discovery process having to be aware of it. It also means OGRE uses declarative render information rather than immediate mode rendering - this is very useful in that certain effects and processes can automatically be applied to a wide range of scenes, but the downside is that special cases are more difficult to handle, because there is not the declared state to cope with it.
This method allows a Renderable to do something special at the actual point of rendering if it wishes to. When this method is called, all the material render state as declared by this Renderable has already been set, all that is left to do is to bind the buffers and perform the render. The Renderable may modify render state itself if it wants to (and restore it in the postRender call) before the automated render happens, or by returning 'false' from this method can actually suppress the automatic render and perform one of its own.
Returns
true if the automatic render should proceed, false to skip it on the assumption that the Renderable has done it manually.

Reimplemented in Ogre::BillboardChain.

Definition at line 123 of file OgreRenderable.h.

void Ogre::Renderable::removeCustomParameter ( size_t  index)
inlineinherited

Removes a custom value which is associated with this Renderable at the given index.

Parameters
indexIndex of the parameter to remove.
See also
setCustomParameter for full details.

Definition at line 250 of file OgreRenderable.h.

void Ogre::SubEntity::resetIndexDataStartEndIndex ( )

Reset the custom start/end index to the default values.

void Ogre::Renderable::setCustomParameter ( size_t  index,
const Vector4 value 
)
inlineinherited

Sets a custom parameter for this Renderable, which may be used to drive calculations for this specific Renderable, like GPU program parameters.

Remarks
Calling this method simply associates a numeric index with a 4-dimensional value for this specific Renderable. This is most useful if the material which this Renderable uses a vertex or fragment program, and has an ACT_CUSTOM parameter entry. This parameter entry can refer to the index you specify as part of this call, thereby mapping a custom parameter for this renderable to a program parameter.
Parameters
indexThe index with which to associate the value. Note that this does not have to start at 0, and can include gaps. It also has no direct correlation with a GPU program parameter index - the mapping between the two is performed by the ACT_CUSTOM entry, if that is used.
valueThe value to associate.

Definition at line 241 of file OgreRenderable.h.

void Ogre::SubEntity::setIndexDataEndIndex ( size_t  end_index)

Tells this SubEntity to draw a subset of the SubMesh by adjusting the index buffer extents.

Default value is SubMesh::indexData::indexCount so that the entire index buffer is used when drawing. Valid values are mStartIndex to SubMesh::indexData::indexCount

void Ogre::SubEntity::setIndexDataStartIndex ( size_t  start_index)

Tells this SubEntity to draw a subset of the SubMesh by adjusting the index buffer extents.

Default value is zero so that the entire index buffer is used when drawing. Valid values are zero to getIndexDataEndIndex()

void Ogre::SubEntity::setMaterial ( const MaterialPtr material)

Sets a Material to be used.

Remarks
By default a SubEntity uses the default Material that the SubMesh uses. This call can alter that so that the Material is different for this instance.
void Ogre::SubEntity::setMaterialName ( const String name,
const String groupName = ResourceGroupManager::AUTODETECT_RESOURCE_GROUP_NAME 
)

Sets the name of the Material to be used.

Remarks
By default a SubEntity uses the default Material that the SubMesh uses. This call can alter that so that the Material is different for this instance.
virtual void Ogre::Renderable::setPolygonModeOverrideable ( bool  override)
inlinevirtualinherited

Sets whether this renderable's chosen detail level can be overridden (downgraded) by the camera setting.

Parameters
overridetrue means that a lower camera detail will override this renderables detail level, false means it won't.

Definition at line 324 of file OgreRenderable.h.

virtual void Ogre::SubEntity::setRenderQueueGroup ( uint8  queueID)
virtual

Sets the render queue group this SubEntity will be rendered through.

Remarks
Render queues are grouped to allow you to more tightly control the ordering of rendered objects. If you do not call this method, the SubEntity will use either the Entity's queue or it will use the default (RenderQueue::getDefaultQueueGroup).
See Entity::setRenderQueueGroup for more details.
Parameters
queueIDEnumerated value of the queue group to use. See the enum RenderQueueGroupID for what kind of values can be used here.
virtual void Ogre::SubEntity::setRenderQueueGroupAndPriority ( uint8  queueID,
ushort  priority 
)
virtual

Sets the render queue group and group priority this SubEntity will be rendered through.

Remarks
Render queues are grouped to allow you to more tightly control the ordering of rendered objects. Within a single render group there another type of grouping called priority which allows further control. If you do not call this method, all Entity objects default to the default queue and priority (RenderQueue::getDefaultQueueGroup, RenderQueue::getDefaultRenderablePriority).
See Entity::setRenderQueueGroupAndPriority for more details.
Parameters
queueIDEnumerated value of the queue group to use. See the enum RenderQueueGroupID for what kind of values can be used here.
priorityThe priority within a group to use.
virtual void Ogre::Renderable::setRenderSystemData ( RenderSystemData val) const
inlinevirtualinherited

Sets RenderSystem private data.

Remarks
This should only be used by a RenderSystem

Definition at line 407 of file OgreRenderable.h.

void Ogre::Renderable::setUseIdentityProjection ( bool  useIdentityProjection)
inlineinherited

Sets whether or not to use an 'identity' projection.

Remarks
Usually Renderable objects will use a projection matrix as determined by the active camera. However, if they want they can cancel this out and use an identity projection, which effectively projects in 2D using a {-1, 1} view space. Useful for overlay rendering. Normal renderables need not change this. The default is false.

However, if they want they can cancel this out and use an identity matrix, which means all geometry is assumed to be relative to camera space already. Useful for overlay rendering. Normal renderables need not change this. The default is false.

virtual OGRE_DEPRECATED void Ogre::Renderable::setUserAny ( const Any anything)
inlinevirtualinherited
Deprecated:
use UserObjectBindings::setUserAny via getUserObjectBindings() instead.

Sets any kind of user value on this object.

Remarks
This method allows you to associate any user value you like with this Renderable. This can be a pointer back to one of your own classes for instance.
