## Detailed Description

The SbSphereProjector class is the abstract base class for mapping to spherical surfaces.

The sphere projectors map 2D points to various surface types based on spherical shapes.

## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

SbSphereProjector::SbSphereProjector | ( | const SbBool | orienttoeye | ) |
| protected

Default constructor sets up a sphere at the origin with radius 1.

SbSphereProjector::SbSphereProjector | ( | const SbSphere & | s,
|  | const SbBool | orienttoeye
| ) |  |
| protected

Constructor taking an explicit sphere projection definition.

## Member Function Documentation

SbVec3f SbSphereProjector::projectAndGetRotation | ( | const SbVec2f & | point,
|  | SbRotation & | rot
| ) |  |

Project the 2D point to a 3D coordinate on the spherical surface, and find the rotation from the last projection to this one.

See also
  project(), getRotation()

SbRotation SbSphereProjector::getRotation | ( | const SbVec3f & | point1,
|  | const SbVec3f & | point2
| ) |  |
| pure virtual

Returns rotation on the projection surface which re-orients point1 to point2.

Implemented in SbSphereSectionProjector, SbSpherePlaneProjector, and SbSphereSheetProjector.

void SbSphereProjector::setSphere | ( | const SbSphere & | sph | ) |

Set sphere to project onto.

const SbSphere & SbSphereProjector::getSphere | ( | void |  | ) | const

Returns projection sphere.

void SbSphereProjector::setOrientToEye | ( | const SbBool | orienttoeye | ) |

Sets whether or not the projection surface should be oriented towards the eye of the viewer. Default is `TRUE`.

SbBool SbSphereProjector::isOrientToEye | ( | void |  | ) | const

Returns the state of the sphere orientation flag.

void SbSphereProjector::setFront | ( | const SbBool | infront | ) |

Set whether to intersect with the outside of the sphere (infront equal to `TRUE`), or the inside.

SbBool SbSphereProjector::isFront | ( | void |  | ) | const

Returns value of the flag which decides whether to intersect with the outside or inside of the sphere.

SbBool SbSphereProjector::isPointInFront | ( | const SbVec3f & | point | ) | const

Check if point is on the frontside or the backside of the cylinder.

void SbSphereProjector::setWorkingSpace | ( | const SbMatrix & | space | ) |
| virtual

Sets the matrix used for converting from the projector's coordinate system to the world coordinate system.

Reimplemented from SbProjector.

SbBool SbSphereProjector::intersectSphereFront | ( | const SbLine & | l,
|  | SbVec3f & | result
| ) |  |
| protected

Intersect line with the SbSphereProjector::sphere and place the intersection point (if any) in result. Considers setFront() settings.

Returns `TRUE` if line actually hits the sphere, `FALSE` if it doesn't intersect with it.

## Member Data Documentation

SbSphereProjector::intersectFront
| protected

Flag which says whether or not we should map to the outside or inside of the sphere surface.

SbSphereProjector::sphere
| protected

Projection sphere.

SbSphereProjector::orientToEye
| protected

Which direction the spherical surface is oriented.

SbSphereProjector::needSetup
| protected

Set to `TRUE` whenever the projection surface needs to be recalculated according to the setting of the SbSphereProjector::orientToEye flag.

SbSphereProjector::lastPoint
| protected

Stores the previously projected 3D point.
