Detailed Description

handles properties associated with a texture map.

Revision:
1.46

vtkTexture is an object that handles loading and binding of texture maps. It obtains its data from an input structured points dataset type. Thus you can create visualization pipelines to read, process, and construct textures. Note that textures will only work if texture coordinates are also defined, and if the rendering system supports texture.

Instances of vtkTexture are associated with actors via the actor's SetTexture() method. Actors can share texture maps (this is encouraged to save memory resources.)

Warning:
Currently only 2D texture maps are supported, even though the data pipeline supports 1,2, and 3D texture coordinates.
Warning:
Some renderers such as OpenGL require that the texture map dimensions are a power of two in each direction. Other renderers may have similar (ridiculous) restrictions, so be careful out there... (Note: a recent change to vtk allows use of non-power of two texture maps in OpenGL. The texture is automatically resampled to a power of two in one or more directions.)

Member Function Documentation

vtkTexture* vtkTexture::New   [static]
 

Create an object with Debug turned off, modified time initialized to zero, and reference counting on.

Reimplemented from vtkObject.

Reimplemented in vtkMesaTexture, and vtkOpenGLTexture.

virtual const char* vtkTexture::GetClassName   [virtual]
 

Return the class name as a string. This method is defined in all subclasses of vtkObject with the vtkTypeMacro found in vtkSetGet.h.

Reimplemented from vtkObject.

Reimplemented in vtkMesaTexture, and vtkOpenGLTexture.

int vtkTexture::IsTypeOf const char *    type [static]
 

Return 1 if this class type is the same type of (or a subclass of) the named class. Returns 0 otherwise. This method works in combination with vtkTypeMacro found in vtkSetGet.h.

Reimplemented from vtkObject.

Reimplemented in vtkMesaTexture, and vtkOpenGLTexture.

virtual int vtkTexture::IsA const char *    type [virtual]
 

Return 1 if this class is the same type of (or a subclass of) the named class. Returns 0 otherwise. This method works in combination with vtkTypeMacro found in vtkSetGet.h.

Reimplemented from vtkObject.

Reimplemented in vtkMesaTexture, and vtkOpenGLTexture.

vtkTexture* vtkTexture::SafeDownCast vtkObject   o [static]
 

Will cast the supplied object to vtkObject* is this is a safe operation (i.e., a safe downcast); otherwise NULL is returned. This method is defined in all subclasses of vtkObject with the vtkTypeMacro found in vtkSetGet.h.

Reimplemented from vtkObject.

Reimplemented in vtkMesaTexture, and vtkOpenGLTexture.

void vtkTexture::PrintSelf ostream &    os,
vtkIndent    indent
[virtual]
 

Methods invoked by print to print information about the object including superclasses. Typically not called by the user (use Print() instead) but used in the hierarchical print process to combine the output of several classes.

Reimplemented from vtkObject.

virtual void vtkTexture::Render vtkRenderer   ren [virtual]
 

Renders a texture map. It first checks the object's modified time to make sure the texture maps Input is valid, then it invokes the Load() method.

virtual void vtkTexture::ReleaseGraphicsResources vtkWindow   [inline, virtual]
 

Release any graphics resources that are being consumed by this texture. The parameter window could be used to determine which graphic resources to release.

Reimplemented in vtkMesaTexture, and vtkOpenGLTexture.

Definition at line 105 of file vtkTexture.h.

virtual void vtkTexture::Load vtkRenderer   ren [inline, virtual]
 

Abstract interface to renderer. Each concrete subclass of vtkTexture will load its data into graphics system in response to this method invocation.

Reimplemented in vtkMesaTexture, and vtkOpenGLTexture.

Definition at line 110 of file vtkTexture.h.

virtual int vtkTexture::GetRepeat   [virtual]
 

Turn on/off the repetition of the texture map when the texture coords extend beyond the [0,1] range.

virtual void vtkTexture::SetRepeat int    [virtual]
 

virtual void vtkTexture::RepeatOn   [virtual]
 

virtual void vtkTexture::RepeatOff   [virtual]
 

virtual int vtkTexture::GetInterpolate   [virtual]
 

Turn on/off linear interpolation of the texture map when rendering.

virtual void vtkTexture::SetInterpolate int    [virtual]
 

virtual void vtkTexture::InterpolateOn   [virtual]
 

virtual void vtkTexture::InterpolateOff   [virtual]
 

virtual void vtkTexture::SetQuality int    [virtual]
 

Force texture quality to 16-bit or 32-bit. This might not be supported on all machines.

virtual int vtkTexture::GetQuality   [virtual]
 

void vtkTexture::SetQualityToDefault   [inline]
 

Definition at line 127 of file vtkTexture.h.

void vtkTexture::SetQualityTo16Bit   [inline]
 

Definition at line 128 of file vtkTexture.h.

void vtkTexture::SetQualityTo32Bit   [inline]
 

Definition at line 129 of file vtkTexture.h.

virtual int vtkTexture::GetMapColorScalarsThroughLookupTable   [virtual]
 

Turn on/off the mapping of color scalars through the lookup table. The default is Off. If Off, unsigned char scalars will be used directly as texture. If On, scalars will be mapped through the lookup table to generate 4-component unsigned char scalars. This ivar does not affect other scalars like unsigned short, float, etc. These scalars are always mapped through lookup tables.

virtual void vtkTexture::SetMapColorScalarsThroughLookupTable int    [virtual]
 

virtual void vtkTexture::MapColorScalarsThroughLookupTableOn   [virtual]
 

virtual void vtkTexture::MapColorScalarsThroughLookupTableOff   [virtual]
 

virtual void vtkTexture::SetInput vtkStructuredPoints   [virtual]
 

Specify the data for the texture map.

virtual vtkStructuredPoints* vtkTexture::GetInput   [virtual]
 

void vtkTexture::SetInput vtkImageData   cache [inline]
 

Definition at line 144 of file vtkTexture.h.

void vtkTexture::SetLookupTable vtkLookupTable  
 

Specify the lookup table to convert scalars if necessary

virtual vtkLookupTable* vtkTexture::GetLookupTable   [virtual]
 

virtual vtkScalars* vtkTexture::GetMappedScalars   [virtual]
 

Get Mapped Scalars

unsigned char* vtkTexture::MapScalarsToColors vtkScalars   scalars
 

Map scalar values into color scalars.
