SceneVisualizerBase

simple module

This is a base module for scene visualizer simple modules. It determines the bounds of the scene, that is the minimum area where the whole simulation fits in. The scene encloses all physical objects and the constraint area of all mobile nodes. The visualizer also provides a timer which can be used to periodically update the user interface independently of the underlying simulation. The actual visualization of the scene is done in derived modules.

Inheritance diagram

The following diagram shows inheritance relationships for this type. Unresolved types are missing from the diagram.

Known subclasses

Name	Type	Description
OpenStreetMapSceneCanvasVisualizer	simple module	This module visualizes a stream map given in an OpenStreetMap file. Other objects of the scene are placed on the map according to the coordinate system module.
SceneCanvasVisualizer	simple module	This module visualizes the scene on a 2D canvas. It provides the 3D coordinate system's 2D orthographic projection for other visualizers. This is used to get a consistent visualization accross all visualizers. It can also display the coordinate system axes.
SceneOsgVisualizerBase	simple module	This is a base module for scene visualizer simple modules on a 3D osg scene. It displays the scene either as a filled rectangle or as an image.

Extends

Name	Type	Description
VisualizerBase	simple module	This is a base module for visualizer simple modules. It simply provides the visualization target module for derived modules.

Parameters

Name	Type	Default value	Description
visualizationTargetModule	string	"^"	module path relative to the visualizer which determines where the visualization should appear in the user interface, parent module by default
visualizationSubjectModule	string	"^"	module path relative to the visualizer which determines what part of the simulation model the visualizer displays in the user interface, parent module by default
tags	string	""	tag added to each visualization for disambiguation in the runtime environment
physicalEnvironmentModule	string	"physicalEnvironment"	the physical environment module, refers to a top level submodule by default
networkNodeVisualizerModule	string	"^.networkNodeVisualizer"	the network node visualizer, refers to a sibling submodule by default
axisLength	double	nan m	length of x, y, and z axes, no axis by default
animationSpeed	double	0	always active animation speed independent of any visualization, value must be in the range (0, +inf)
sceneMinX	double	nan m	lower bound of x coordinates in scene
sceneMinY	double	nan m	lower bound of y coordinates in scene
sceneMinZ	double	nan m	lower bound of z coordinates in scene
sceneMaxX	double	nan m	upper bound of x coordinates in scene
sceneMaxY	double	nan m	upper bound of y coordinates in scene
sceneMaxZ	double	nan m	upper bound of z coordinates in scene
