Detailed Description

The skeletal animation plugin is used to interact with the skeleton.

this plugin controls the playback of skeletal animations

Definition at line 72 of file SkeletalAnimationPlugin.hh.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

SkeletalAnimationPlugin::SkeletalAnimationPlugin ( )

Constructor.

Definition at line 66 of file SkeletalAnimationPlugin.cc.

Member Function Documentation

void SkeletalAnimationPlugin::addedEmptyObject ( int  _id)
slot

Update ui when the object is added.

Definition at line 193 of file SkeletalAnimationPlugin.cc.

void SkeletalAnimationPlugin::animate ( void  )
privateslot

Iterates the animation.

If frame skipping is disabled, the next frame will be drawn. Otherwise, the next frame is determined by the time that passed since the last call.

Definition at line 595 of file SkeletalAnimationPlugin.cc.

void SkeletalAnimationPlugin::checkObjectSelection ( const int  _objectId)
slot

Check source/target selection of objects.

Definition at line 238 of file SkeletalAnimationPlugin.cc.

AnimationHandle SkeletalAnimationPlugin::currentAnimationHandle ( )
protected

Returns a handle describing the current frame in the active animation.

This information is derived from the corresponding combo box and slider.

Definition at line 1042 of file SkeletalAnimationPlugin.cc.

QString SkeletalAnimationPlugin::description ( )
virtual

returns a plugin description

Implements BaseInterface.

Definition at line 89 of file SkeletalAnimationPlugin.cc.

void SkeletalAnimationPlugin::exit ( )
privateslot

Plugin gets closed.

Definition at line 153 of file SkeletalAnimationPlugin.cc.

void SkeletalAnimationPlugin::fileOpened ( int  _id)
slot

Update ui when the object is loaded.

Definition at line 184 of file SkeletalAnimationPlugin.cc.

void SkeletalAnimationPlugin::initializePlugin ( )
privateslot

initialize the plugin

Definition at line 99 of file SkeletalAnimationPlugin.cc.

QString SkeletalAnimationPlugin::name ( void  )
virtual

returns the plugin name

Implements BaseInterface.

Definition at line 79 of file SkeletalAnimationPlugin.cc.

void SkeletalAnimationPlugin::objectDeleted ( int  _id)
slot

Update ui when the object is deleted.

Definition at line 203 of file SkeletalAnimationPlugin.cc.

void SkeletalAnimationPlugin::pluginsInitialized ( )
privateslot

final initializations

Definition at line 143 of file SkeletalAnimationPlugin.cc.

void SkeletalAnimationPlugin::slotAllCleared ( )
slot

clear all occurred

Definition at line 162 of file SkeletalAnimationPlugin.cc.

void SkeletalAnimationPlugin::slotMethodChanged ( int  _index)
privateslot

Called as the skin deformation method changed.

The spherical skin blending appears to be buggy, so it is recommended not to use it.

Definition at line 642 of file SkeletalAnimationPlugin.cc.

void SkeletalAnimationPlugin::slotObjectSelectionChanged ( int  _id)
slot

Update ui when the object selection changes.

Definition at line 174 of file SkeletalAnimationPlugin.cc.

void SkeletalAnimationPlugin::slotSkipFramesChanged ( int  _state)
privateslot

Called as the skip frames check box changes state.

To prevent the animation playback from jumping, the animation timer is restarted here.

Definition at line 623 of file SkeletalAnimationPlugin.cc.

void SkeletalAnimationPlugin::UpdateSkins ( BaseObjectData _skeletonObject,
AnimationHandle _hAni 
)
protected

Changes the mesh's pose to represent the frame given by the animation handle.

Parameters
_skeletonObjectThe object holding the skeleton, it is holding the pointer to the skin object
_hAniA handle of the new animation/pose

Definition at line 376 of file SkeletalAnimationPlugin.cc.
