class ShapeGroup in Tinman.Terrain.Shapes

Default implementation of the IShapeGroup interface.

sealed class	ShapeGroup	implements	IShapeGroup
		extends	ShapeBase

Configuration

ToConfig

Returns the configuration value that describes this object.

public override method	ToConfig ()
type	ConfigValue
returns		[not-null]	The configuration value.
implements	ShapeBase.ToConfig

Remarks:

All configurable objects need to implement this interface. For simple types, it is preferable to delegate to ToValue.

The returned value may be of type Invalid, which means that this object in its current state cannot be described with the configuration API.

Before returning the resulting configuration value, Cache must be called on it, passing this IConfigurable object as parameter.

Serialization

SerialId

Serialization information about this type.

public static readonly field	SerialId
type	ISerialTypeInfo

Public / Attributes

Bounds

Returns the axis-aligned bounding box of this shape.

public override property	Bounds { get }
type	Box2D
value		The axis-aligned bounding box.
implements	ShapeBase.Bounds

Remarks:

The bounding box is defined as the smallest possible rectangle that contains all points which have a shape distance of zero or less.

EdgeCount

Returns the number of shape edges.

public virtual property	EdgeCount { get }
type	int32
value	[>=0]	The number of shape edges.

EdgeParity

Defines how the vertex winding of polygon contours is interpreted (outer rings vs. holes).

public virtual property	EdgeParity { get }
type	int32
value		The parity value: +/- 1 for polygons, 0 for non-polygon shapes.
inherited	ShapeBase.EdgeParity

Remarks:

A polygon contour is classified as an outer ring or a hole according to the sign of its signed area:

outer := sign(Area(contour)) == Parity
hole  := sign(Area(contour)) != Parity

The default value is -1 (i.e. clockwise orientation in a standard Cartesian coordinate system).

Georef

public override property	Georef { get }
type	CoordinateSystem
value	[not-null]	The coordinate system.

Is this a cubemap shape?

public virtual property	IsCubemap { get }
type	bool
value		true if this is a cubemap shape, false if not.
inherited	ShapeBase.IsCubemap

Remarks:

Cubemap shapes have a geographic coordinate system (see IsGeographic) and six separate sub-shapes, one for each cubemap face (see Cubemap)).

IShape.TransformCubemap
IShape.Face

IsGeometry

Does this shape consist of plain geometry only?

public virtual property	IsGeometry { get }
type	bool
value		true if this shape has plain geometry only, false if not.

Returns the number of shape vertices.

public virtual property	VertexCount { get }
type	int32
value	[>=0]	The number of shape vertices.
