Classes

Class

Description

Public Class
CalculateBoundingBoxEventArgs

Public Class
ColorGradient

Public Class
CullObjectEventArgs

Public Class
CustomDisplay

Provides some basic (indeed, very basic) mechanisms for drawing custom geometry in viewports.

Public Class
DisplayBitmap

A bitmap resource that can be used by the display pipeline (currently only in OpenGL display). Reuse DisplayBitmaps for drawing if possible; it is much more expensive to construct new DisplayBitmaps than it is to reuse existing DisplayBitmaps.

Public Class
DisplayBitmapDrawList

Public Class
DisplayConduit

Public Class
DisplayEngine

Public Class
DisplayMaterial

Public Class
DisplayModeChangedEventArgs

Public Class
DisplayModeDescription

Description of a how Rhino will display in a viewport. These are the modes that are listed under “Advanced display” in the options dialog.

Public Class
DisplayPen

Pen used to define stroke applied to several DisplayPipeline draw functions

Public Class
DisplayPipeline

The display pipeline calls events during specific phases of drawing During the drawing of a single frame the events are called in the following order.

[Begin Drawing of a Frame]

CalculateBoundingBox
CalculateClippingPanes
SetupFrustum
SetupLighting
InitializeFrameBuffer
DrawBackground
If this is a layout and detail objects exist the channels are called in the same order for each detail object (drawn as a nested viewport)
PreDrawObjects
For Each Visible Non Highlighted Object
PostDrawObjects - depth writing/testing on
DrawForeGround - depth writing/testing off
For Each Visible Highlighted Object
PostProcessFrameBuffer (If a delegate exists that requires this)
DrawOverlay (if Rhino is in a feedback mode)

[End of Drawing of a Frame]

NOTE: There may be multiple DrawObject calls for a single object. An example of when this could happen would be with a shaded sphere. The shaded mesh is first drawn and these channels would be processed; then at a later time the isocurves for the sphere would be drawn.

Public Class
DisplayPipelineAttributes

Represents display pipeline settings, such as “show transparency” and “show grips”.

Public Class
DisplayPipelineAttributes.MeshDisplayAttributes

Public Class
DisplayPipelineAttributes.ViewDisplayAttributes

Public Class
DisplayPoint

A 3d point with attributes used by the display pipeline

Public Class
DisplayPointAttributes

Public Class
DisplayPointSet

Public Class
DrawEventArgs

Public Class
DrawForegroundEventArgs

Public Class
DrawObjectEventArgs

Public Class
InitFrameBufferEventArgs

Public Class
PageViewPropertiesChangeEventArgs

PageView properties change event arguments.

Public Class
PageViewSpaceChangeEventArgs

Public Class
RhinoPageView

A window that contains a single layout ‘page’

Public Class
RhinoView

A RhinoView represents a single “window” display of a document. A view could contain one or many RhinoViewports (many in the case of Layout views with detail viewports). Standard Rhino modeling views have one viewport.

Public Class
RhinoViewport

Displays geometry with a given projection. In standard modeling views there is a one to one relationship between RhinoView and RhinoViewports. In a page layout, there may be multiple RhinoViewports for a single layout.

Public Class
Text3d

3D aligned text with font settings.

Public Class
ViewCapture

Public Class
ViewCaptureSettings

Holds information required to generate high resolution output of a RhinoViewport. This is used for generating paper prints or image files

Public Class
ViewEventArgs

Public Class
VisualAnalysisMode

Represents a base class for visual analysis modes.

This class is abstract.

Public Class
ZBufferCapture

Provides functionality for getting the z-buffer values from a viewport and a given display mode

Structures

Structure

Description

Public Struct
Color4f

Color defined by 4 floating point values.

Public Struct
ColorCMYK

Represents a CMYK (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Key) color with double precision floating point channels. CMYK colors are used primarily in printing environments as they provide a good simulation of physical ink.

Public Struct
ColorHSL

Represents an HSL (Hue, Saturation, Luminance) color with double precision floating point channels. HSL colors are used primarily in Graphical User Interface environments as they provide a very natural approach to picking colors.

Public Struct
ColorHSV

Represents an HSV (Hue, Saturation, Value) color with double precision floating point channels. HSV colors (also sometimes called HSB, where B means Brightness) are similar to HSL colors in that they represent colors in a cylindrical color space, and are intended to provide intuitive means to edit the brightness of a particular color over RGB color space where each color channel would need to be modified to affect the color brightness.

Public Struct
ColorLAB

Represents a LAB (Lightness, A, B) color with double precision floating point channels. LAB colors are based on nonlinearly compressed CIE XYZ color space coordinates. The A and B parameters of a LAB color represent the opponents.

Public Struct
ColorLCH

Represents an LCH (Lightness, A, B) color with double precision floating point channels. LCH colors (also sometimes called CIELUV) are transformation of the 1931 CIE XYZ color space, in order to approach perceptual uniformity. They are primarily used in computer graphics which deal with colored lights.

Public Struct
ColorRGBA

Represents a sRGBA (Red, Green, Blue, Alpha) color with double precision floating point channel.

Public Struct
ColorStop

Combination of a color and position. Used in defining gradient fills

Public Struct
ColorXYZ

Represents an XYZ (Hue, Saturation, Luminance) color with double precision floating point channels. XYZ colors are based on the CIE 1931 XYZ color space standard and they mimic the natural sensitivity of cones in the human retina.
