Lines Sample

Lines Sample demonstrates programming of Line Strip objects

See also C# .NET Samples, All samples

The application

By default the application loads Lines.mdg with single continuous line strip of three segments. The form displays all properties of the line strip.

The line strip is closed. It has three underlying points Its index array is: [0, 1, 2, 0, -1].

When the point count is increased new points are added to the end of the point array and correspondent index is inserted into the end of the index array.

Turning on the "Per Vertex" check box enables interpolation of the line colors from one end to another.

Implementation

LinesDlg::Init() function obtains ISectionLineStrip interface from the first ISection in the model and gets access to its Point Array by quering it from the ISectionLineStrip. and storing it in m_iArray2 variable. To retrieve coordinates of the points IMatrixData is obtained with a call to ISectionPointSet.GetPoints. IMatrixData implemented by the Color Array is obtained via ISectionPointSet.GetColors and stored into the m_iMatrixColor variable.

LinesDlg::OnPointCountChanged() handles changes in size of the point array by adding or removing last points via m_iArray2.

All other operations are comparatively straightforward.
