Sample Code: Animation in 3DF csharp_simple Project

HOOPS Visualize
, , , ,
1

Language: C#

This is a C# variant of the C++ animation sample presented here.

The 3DF Visualize service pack has a basic sandbox Visual Studio project based in C#. The project is called “csharp_simple_csXXX”. The project is part of the solution called “samples_v14X.sln” found immediately under the root directory of the 3DF service package. Once the aforementioned solution is open, expand the “demo” folder:

csharp_simple

In contrast to other sandboxes, csharp_simple does not have empty user code function slots. To get around that, we can just “re-use” and existing function called actionAnnotateMenu_Click().

Locate the file “SimpleHNForm.cs” and replace the existing function:
public void actionAnnotateMenu_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
m_pHNPanel.SetCurrentOperator(new HOpMarkupAnnotate(m_pHNPanel.m_pHView));
}

with the following code:

void insertCube(String x, HBaseView view, HPoint pos, String color = "green")
{
    int points = 8, faces = 30;
    float[] pts = {
                    -0.1f + pos.x, -0.1f + pos.y, -0.1f + pos.z,
                    0.1f + pos.x, -0.1f + pos.y, -0.1f + pos.z,
                    0.1f + pos.x, 0.1f + pos.y, -0.1f + pos.z,
                    -0.1f + pos.x, 0.1f + pos.y, -0.1f + pos.z,
                    -0.1f + pos.x, -0.1f + pos.y, 0.1f + pos.z,
                    0.1f + pos.x, -0.1f + pos.y, 0.1f + pos.z,
                    0.1f + pos.x, 0.1f + pos.y, 0.1f + pos.z,
                    -0.1f + pos.x, 0.1f + pos.y, 0.1f + pos.z
                    };


    int[] faceList = { 4, 0, 1, 2, 3,
