Detailed Description

Objects that compute a screen-based error during cell tessellation.

It is a concrete error metric, based on a geometric criterium in the screen space: the variation of the projected edge from a projected straight line

Standard VTK type and error macros.

◆ GetPixelTolerance()

virtual double vtkViewDependentErrorMetric::GetPixelTolerance ( )
virtual

Return the squared screen-based geometric accuracy measured in pixels.

An accuracy less or equal to 0.25 (0.5^2) ensures that the screen-space interpolation of a mid-point matches exactly with the projection of the mid-point (a value less than 1 but greater than 0.25 is not enough, because of 8-neighbors). Maybe it is useful for lower accuracy in case of anti-aliasing?

Postcondition
positive_result: result>0

◆ SetPixelTolerance()

void vtkViewDependentErrorMetric::SetPixelTolerance ( double  value)

Set the squared screen-based geometric accuracy measured in pixels.

Subdivision will be required if the square distance between the projection of the real point and the straight line passing through the projection of the vertices of the edge is greater than ‘value’. For instance, 0.25 will give better result than 1.

Precondition
positive_value: value>0

◆ GetViewport()

virtual vtkViewport* vtkViewDependentErrorMetric::GetViewport ( )
virtual

Set/Get the renderer with ‘renderer’ on which the error metric is based.

The error metric use the active camera of the renderer.

◆ SetViewport()

void vtkViewDependentErrorMetric::SetViewport ( vtkViewport viewport)

Set/Get the renderer with ‘renderer’ on which the error metric is based.

The error metric use the active camera of the renderer.

◆ RequiresEdgeSubdivision()

int vtkViewDependentErrorMetric::RequiresEdgeSubdivision ( double *  leftPoint,
double *  midPoint,
double *  rightPoint,
double  alpha 
)
overridevirtual

Does the edge need to be subdivided according to the distance between the line passing through its endpoints in screen space and the projection of its mid point? The edge is defined by its ‘leftPoint’ and its ‘rightPoint’.

‘leftPoint’, ‘midPoint’ and ‘rightPoint’ have to be initialized before calling RequiresEdgeSubdivision(). Their format is global coordinates, parametric coordinates and point centered attributes: xyx rst abc de... ‘alpha’ is the normalized abscissa of the midpoint along the edge. (close to 0 means close to the left point, close to 1 means close to the right point)

Precondition
leftPoint_exists: leftPoint!=0
midPoint_exists: midPoint!=0
rightPoint_exists: rightPoint!=0
clamped_alpha: alpha>0 && alpha<1
valid_size: sizeof(leftPoint)=sizeof(midPoint)=sizeof(rightPoint) =GetAttributeCollection()->GetNumberOfPointCenteredComponents()+6

Implements vtkGenericSubdivisionErrorMetric.

◆ GetError()

double vtkViewDependentErrorMetric::GetError ( double *  leftPoint,
double *  midPoint,
double *  rightPoint,
double  alpha 
)
overridevirtual

Return the error at the mid-point.

The type of error depends on the state of the concrete error metric. For instance, it can return an absolute or relative error metric. See RequiresEdgeSubdivision() for a description of the arguments.

Precondition
leftPoint_exists: leftPoint!=0
midPoint_exists: midPoint!=0
rightPoint_exists: rightPoint!=0
clamped_alpha: alpha>0 && alpha<1
valid_size: sizeof(leftPoint)=sizeof(midPoint)=sizeof(rightPoint) =GetAttributeCollection()->GetNumberOfPointCenteredComponents()+6
Postcondition
positive_result: result>=0

Implements vtkGenericSubdivisionErrorMetric.

◆ Distance2LinePoint()

double vtkViewDependentErrorMetric::Distance2LinePoint ( double  x[2],
double  y[2],
double  z[2] 
)
protected

Square distance between a straight line (defined by points x and y) and a point z.

Property: if x and y are equal, the line is a point and the result is the square distance between points x and z.
