RenderPrimitive

RenderPrimitive class

Derived Classes:

Namespace: Rhino.Render
RenderPrimitive: references

Properties (5)

BoundingBox

The bounding box for this primitive.

InstanceTransform

Instance reference transform or Identity if not an instance reference.

PrimitiveType

Call this before extracting meshes if you support render primitives to get the <b>RenderPrimitiveType</b> of this mesh then call the associated <b>TryGetSphere</b> , <b>TryGetPlane</b> , <b>TryGetCone</b> , or <b>TryGetBox</b> method. Calling the <b>Mesh</b> property will mesh the primitive and return a mesh always.

RenderMaterial

The <b>RenderMaterial</b> associated with this mesh or None if there is not one.

RhinoObject

The Rhino object associated with this render primitive.

Methods (7)

Dispose()

Dispose(bool isDisposing)

Mesh()

Returns the mesh associated with the object, this will mesh primitives and always return a mesh.

TryGetBox(out Box box)

Call this method to get a <b>Box</b> primitive for this mesh. If this meshes <b>PrimitiveType</b> is not a <b>Rhino.Render.RenderPrimitiveType.Box</b> then the box parameter is set to <b>Box.Empty</b> .

TryGetCone(out Cone cone, out Plane truncation)

Call this method to get a <b>Cone</b> primitive for this mesh. If this meshes <b>PrimitiveType</b> is not a <b>Rhino.Render.RenderPrimitiveType.Cone</b> then the cone parameter is set to <b>Cone.Unset</b> and the truncation parameter is set to <b>Plane.Unset</b> .

TryGetPlane(out PlaneSurface plane)

Call this method to get a <b>Plane</b> primitive for this mesh. If this meshes <b>PrimitiveType</b> is not a <b>Rhino.Render.RenderPrimitiveType.Plane</b> then the plane parameter is set to null.

TryGetSphere(out Sphere sphere)

Call this method to get a sphere primitive for this mesh. If this meshes <b>PrimitiveType</b> is not a <b>Rhino.Render.RenderPrimitiveType.Sphere</b> then the sphere parameter is set to <b>Sphere.Unset</b> .
