Detailed Description

Provides functions to generate standard geometric shapes, such as boxes, spheres, cylinders, etc.

This class provides simple functions to create frequently used basic shapes. It allows to transform the shapes, merge them into a single mesh, compute normals, etc. It is meant for debug and editor geometry (gizmos, etc.). Vertices can have position, normal, color and 'shape index'. UV coordinates are currently not supported.

struct ezGeometry::Polygon

Each polygon has a face normal and a set of indices, which vertices it references.

void ezGeometry::AddCapsule	(	float	fRadius,
		float	fHeight,
		ezUInt16	uiSegments,
		ezUInt16	uiStacks,
		const ezColor &	color,
		const ezMat4 &	mTransform = `ezMat4::IdentityMatrix()`,
		ezInt32	iCustomIndex = `0`
	)

Adds a capsule.

The origin is at the center of the capsule. Radius and height are added to get the total height of the capsule. uiSegments is the detail around the up axis, must be at least 3. uiStacks is the detail of the rounded top and bottom, must be at least 1.

void ezGeometry::AddCone	(	float	fRadius,
		float	fHeight,
		bool	bCap,
		ezUInt16	uiSegments,
		const ezColor &	color,
		const ezMat4 &	mTransform = `ezMat4::IdentityMatrix()`,
		ezInt32	iCustomIndex = `0`
	)

Adds a cylinder. The origin is at the center of the bottom.

uiSegments is the detail around the up axis, must be at least 3.

void ezGeometry::AddCylinder	(	float	fRadiusTop,
		float	fRadiusBottom,
		float	fHeight,
		bool	bCapTop,
		bool	bCapBottom,
		ezUInt16	uiSegments,
		const ezColor &	color,
		const ezMat4 &	mTransform = `ezMat4::IdentityMatrix()`,
		ezInt32	iCustomIndex = `0`,
		ezAngle	fraction = `ezAngle::Degree(360.0f)`
	)

Adds a cylinder. The origin is at the center.

uiSegments is the detail around the up axis, must be at least 3. The top or bottom caps can be removed using bCapTop and bCapBottom. When fraction is set to any value below 360 degree, a pie / pacman shaped cylinder is created.

void ezGeometry::AddGeodesicSphere	(	float	fRadius,
		ezUInt8	uiSubDivisions,
		const ezColor &	color,
		const ezMat4 &	mTransform = `ezMat4::IdentityMatrix()`,
		ezInt32	iCustomIndex = `0`
	)

Adds a geodesic sphere with radius 1 at the origin.

When uiSubDivisions is zero, the sphere will have 20 triangles.
For each subdivision step the number of triangles quadruples.
0 = 20 triangles, 12 vertices
1 = 80 triangles, 42 vertices
2 = 320 triangles, 162 vertices
3 = 1280 triangles, 642 vertices
4 = 5120 triangles, 2562 vertices
...

void ezGeometry::AddHalfSphere	(	float	fRadius,
		ezUInt16	uiSegments,
		ezUInt16	uiStacks,
		bool	bCap,
		const ezColor &	color,
		const ezMat4 &	mTransform = `ezMat4::IdentityMatrix()`,
		ezInt32	iCustomIndex = `0`
	)

Adds half a sphere.

The origin is at the 'full sphere center', ie. at the center of the cap. uiSegments is the detail around the up axis, must be at least 3. uiStacks is the detail of the rounded top and bottom, must be at least 1.

void ezGeometry::AddPyramid	(	const ezVec3 &	size,
		bool	bCap,
		const ezColor &	color,
		const ezMat4 &	mTransform = `ezMat4::IdentityMatrix()`,
		ezInt32	iCustomIndex = `0`
	)

Adds a pyramid. This is different to a low-res cone in that the corners are placed differently (like on a box).

The origin is at the center of the base quad.size.z is the height of the pyramid.

void ezGeometry::AddSphere	(	float	fRadius,
		ezUInt16	uiSegments,
		ezUInt16	uiStacks,
		const ezColor &	color,
		const ezMat4 &	mTransform = `ezMat4::IdentityMatrix()`,
		ezInt32	iCustomIndex = `0`
	)

Adds a sphere.

uiSegments is the detail around the up axis, must be at least 3. uiStacks is the detail of the rounded top and bottom, must be at least 2.

void ezGeometry::AddTorus	(	float	fInnerRadius,
		float	fOuterRadius,
		ezUInt16	uiSegments,
		ezUInt16	uiSegmentDetail,
		const ezColor &	color,
		const ezMat4 &	mTransform = `ezMat4::IdentityMatrix()`,
		ezInt32	iCustomIndex = `0`
	)

Adds a full torus.

The origin is at the center of the torus. fInnerRadius is the radius from the center to where the torus ring starts. fOuterRadius is the radius to where the torus ring stops. uiSegments is the detail around the up axis. uiSegmentDetail is the number of segments around the torus ring (ie. the cylinder detail)

void ezGeometry::ComputeSmoothVertexNormals ( )

Computes smooth (averaged) normals for each vertex. Requires that face normals are computed.

This only yields smooth normals for vertices that are shared among multiple polygons, otherwise a vertex will have the same normal as the one face that it is used in.

void ezGeometry::Transform	(	const ezMat4 &	mTransform,
		bool	bTransformPolyNormals
	)

Transforms all vertices by the given transform.

When bTransformPolyNormals is true, the polygon normals are transformed, as well. Set this to false when face normals are going to be computed later anyway.

void ezGeometry::TransformVertices	(	const ezMat4 &	mTransform,
		ezUInt32	uiFirstVertex
	)
