## Detailed Description

abstract superclass for all actors, volumes and annotations

Date:
  2002/12/26 18:24:21

Revision:
  1.39

vtkProp is an abstract superclass for any objects that can exist in a rendered scene (either 2D or 3D). Instances of vtkProp may respond to various render methods (e.g., RenderOpaqueGeometry()). vtkProp also defines the API for picking, LOD manipulation, and common instance variables that control visibility, picking, and dragging.

virtual void vtkProp::InitPathTraversal | ( |  | ) | `[virtual]`

vtkProp and its subclasses can be picked by subclasses of vtkAbstractPicker (e.g., vtkPropPicker). The following methods interface with the picking classes and return "pick paths". A pick path is a hierarchical, ordered list of props that form an assembly. Most often, when a vtkProp is picked, its path consists of a single node (i.e., the prop). However, classes like vtkAssembly and vtkPropAssembly can return more than one path, each path being several layers deep. (See vtkAssemblyPath for more information.) To use these methods - first invoke InitPathTraversal() followed by repeated calls to GetNextPath(). GetNextPath() returns a NULL pointer when the list is exhausted.

Reimplemented in vtkPropAssembly, vtkAssembly, and vtkProp3D.

vtkProp and its subclasses can be picked by subclasses of vtkAbstractPicker (e.g., vtkPropPicker). The following methods interface with the picking classes and return "pick paths".

WARNING: INTERNAL METHOD - NOT INTENDED FOR GENERAL USE DO NOT USE THESE METHODS OUTSIDE OF THE RENDERING PROCESS All concrete subclasses must be able to render themselves. There are three key render methods in vtk and they correspond to three different points in the rendering cycle. Any given prop may implement one or more of these methods. The first method is intended for rendering all opaque geometry. The second method is intended for rendering all translucent geometry. Most volume rendering mappers draw their results during this second method. The last method is to render any 2D annotation or overlays. Each of these methods return an integer value indicating whether or not this render method was applied to this data.

WARNING: INTERNAL METHOD - NOT INTENDED FOR GENERAL USE DO NOT USE THESE METHODS OUTSIDE OF THE RENDERING PROCESS The EstimatedRenderTime may be used to select between different props, for example in LODProp it is used to select the level-of-detail. The value is returned in seconds. For simple geometry the accuracy may not be great due to buffering. For ray casting, which is already multi-resolution, the current resolution of the image is factored into the time. We need the viewport for viewing parameters that affect timing. The no-arguments version simply returns the value of the variable with no estimation.

| WARNING: INTERNAL METHOD - NOT INTENDED FOR GENERAL USE DO NOT USE THESE METHODS OUTSIDE OF THE RENDERING PROCESS When the EstimatedRenderTime is first set to 0.0 (in the SetAllocatedRenderTime method) the old value is saved.

|  | vtkViewport * | vtkNotUsed(vp)
| ) | `[inline, virtual]`

WARNING: INTERNAL METHOD - NOT INTENDED FOR GENERAL USE DO NOT USE THIS METHOD OUTSIDE OF THE RENDERING PROCESS This method is intended to allow the renderer to add to the EstimatedRenderTime in props that require information that the renderer has in order to do this. For example, props that are rendered with a ray casting method do not know themselves how long it took for them to render. We don't want to cause a this->Modified() when we set this value since it is not really a modification to the object. (For example, we don't want to rebuild matrices at every render because the estimated render time is changing)

WARNING: INTERNAL METHOD - NOT INTENDED FOR GENERAL USE DO NOT USE THIS METHOD OUTSIDE OF THE RENDERING PROCESS The renderer may use the allocated rendering time to determine how to render this actor. Therefore it might need the information provided in the viewport. A side effect of this method is to reset the EstimatedRenderTime to 0.0. This way, each of the ways that this prop may be rendered can be timed and added together into this value.
