Detailed Description

       The SoRotateSphericalDragger class is for rotating geometry in any
       direction.

       Here’s how the dragger looks with its default geometry in the inactive
       state:

       Use an instance of this dragger class in your scenegraph to let the
       end-users of your application rotate geometry freely in any direction.

       For the initial dragger orientation and the dragger geometry
       positioning itself, use some kind of transformation node in your
       scenegraph, as usual.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

   SoRotateSphericalDragger::SoRotateSphericalDragger (void) Default
       constructor, sets up the dragger nodekit catalog with the interaction
       and feedback geometry.
       Node kit structure (new entries versus parent class marked with arrow
       prefix):

         CLASS SoRotateSphericalDragger
         -->"this"
               "callbackList"
               "topSeparator"
                  "motionMatrix"
                  "geomSeparator"
         -->         "rotatorSwitch"
         -->            "rotator"
         -->            "rotatorActive"
         -->         "feedbackSwitch"
         -->            "feedback"
         -->            "feedbackActive"
         .fi

       (See SoBaseKit::printDiagram() for information about the output formatting.)

       Detailed information on catalog parts:

   SoRotateSphericalDragger::~SoRotateSphericalDragger (void) [protected,
       virtual] Protected destructor.
       (Dragger classes are derived from SoBase, so they are reference counted
       and automatically destroyed when their reference count goes to 0.)

Member Function Documentation

   void SoRotateSphericalDragger::initClass (void) [static] Initializes type
       system for this dragger class.
       Application programmers should usually not have to invoke this method,
       see documentation of SoInteraction::init().

       Reimplemented from SoDragger.

   void SoRotateSphericalDragger::setProjector (SbSphereProjector * p) Replace
       the default sphere projection strategy. You may want to do this if you
       change the dragger geometry, for instance.
       The default projection is an SbSpherePlaneProjector.

       See also:
           SbSphereSectionProjector, SbSphereSheetProjector

   const SbSphereProjector * SoRotateSphericalDragger::getProjector (void)
       const Returns projector instance used for converting from user
       interaction dragger movements to 3D dragger re-orientation.
       See also:
           setProjector()

   SbBool SoRotateSphericalDragger::setUpConnections (SbBool onoff, SbBool
       doitalways = 0) [protected, virtual] Sets up all internal connections
       for instances of this class.
       (This method will usually not be of interest to the application
       programmer, unless you want to extend the library with new custom
       nodekits or dragger classes. If so, see the SoBaseKit class
       documentation.)

       Reimplemented from SoInteractionKit.

   void SoRotateSphericalDragger::copyContents (const SoFieldContainer * from,
       SbBool copyconnections) [protected, virtual] Makes a deep copy of all
       data of from into this instance, except external scenegraph references
       if copyconnections is FALSE.
       This is the protected method that should be overridden by extension
       node / engine / dragger / whatever subclasses which needs to account
       for internal data that are not handled automatically.

       For copying nodes from application code, you should not invoke this
       function directly, but rather call the SoNode::copy() function:

         SoNode * mynewnode = templatenode->copy();

       The same also goes for engines.

       Make sure that when you override the copyContents() method in your
       extension class that you also make it call upwards to it’s parent
       superclass in the inheritance hierarchy, as copyContents() in for
       instance SoNode and SoFieldContainer does important work. It should go
       something like this:

         void
         MyCoinExtensionNode::copyContents(const SoFieldContainer * from,
                                           SbBool copyconnections)
         {
           // let parent superclasses do their thing (copy fields, copy
           // instance name, etc etc)
           SoNode::copyContents(from, copyconnections);

           // [..then copy internal data..]
         }

       Reimplemented from SoInteractionKit.

Member Data Documentation

   SoSFRotation SoRotateSphericalDragger::rotation This field is continuously
       updated to contain the rotation of the current direction vector of the
       dragger.
       The application programmer using this dragger in his scenegraph should
       connect the relevant node fields in the scene to this field to make
       them follow the dragger orientation.

   SoFieldSensor * SoRotateSphericalDragger::fieldSensor [protected] This API
       member is considered internal to the library, as it is not likely to be
       of interest to the application programmer.
       Reimplemented from SoInteractionKit.

   SbMatrix SoRotateSphericalDragger::prevMotionMatrix [protected] This API
       member is considered internal to the library, as it is not likely to be
       of interest to the application programmer.
   SbVec3f SoRotateSphericalDragger::prevWorldHitPt [protected] This API
       member is considered internal to the library, as it is not likely to be
       of interest to the application programmer.
   SbSphereProjector * SoRotateSphericalDragger::sphereProj [protected] This
       API member is considered internal to the library, as it is not likely
       to be of interest to the application programmer.
   SbBool SoRotateSphericalDragger::userProj [protected] This API member is
       considered internal to the library, as it is not likely to be of
       interest to the application programmer.
