Detailed Description

Class that takes care of tessellation of polygons into triangles.

It is expected that client code will create the tessellator object, then repeatedly call addPolygon() method that will generate triangles, and finally call data() to get final vertex data.

Optionally provides extrusion by adding triangles that serve as walls when extrusion height is non-zero.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ QgsTessellator() [1/2]

QgsTessellator::QgsTessellator ( double  originX,
double  originY,
bool  addNormals,
bool  invertNormals = false,
bool  addBackFaces = false,
bool  noZ = false,
bool  addTextureCoords = false,
int  facade = 3,
float  textureRotation = 0.0f 
)

Creates tessellator with a specified origin point of the world (in map coordinates)

Definition at line 165 of file qgstessellator.cpp.

◆ QgsTessellator() [2/2]

QgsTessellator::QgsTessellator ( const QgsRectangle bounds,
bool  addNormals,
bool  invertNormals = false,
bool  addBackFaces = false,
bool  noZ = false,
bool  addTextureCoords = false,
int  facade = 3,
float  textureRotation = 0.0f 
)

Creates tessellator with a specified bounds of input geometry coordinates.

This constructor allows the tessellator to map input coordinates to a desirable range for numerical stability during calculations.

If noZ is true, then a 2-dimensional tessellation only will be performed and all z coordinates will be ignored.
