Extensible 3D (X3D)
Part 1: Architecture and base components
Annex F
(normative)
Full profile
F.1 GeneralThis annex defines the X3D components which comprise the Full profile. This includes not only the nodes which shall be supported but also which fields in the supported nodes may be ignored.
The Full profile of X3D is comprised of all features of the standard.
F.2 TopicsTable F.1 provides links to the major topics in this annex.
F.3 Component supportTable F.2 lists the components and their levels which shall be supported in the Full profile. Tables F.2 and F.3 describe limitations on required support for nodes and fields contained within these components.

F.4 Conformance criteriaConformance to this profile shall include conformance criteria defined by the specifications for those components and levels listed in Table F.2.
In Table F.3 and Table F.4, the first column defines the item for which conformance is being defined. In some cases, general limits are defined but are later overridden in specific cases by more restrictive limits. The second column defines the requirements for a X3D file conforming to the Full profile; if a X3D file contains any items that exceed these limits, it may not be possible for a X3D browser conforming to the Full profile to successfully parse that X3D file. The third column defines the minimum complexity for a X3D scene that a X3D browser conforming to the Full profile shall be able to present to the user. Fields flagged as "not supported" may be supported by browsers which conform to the Full profile. The word "ignore" in the minimum browser support column refers only to the display of the item; in particular, set_ events to ignored inputOutput fields shall still generate corresponding _changed events.
F.5 Node setTable F.3 lists the nodes which shall be supported in the Full profile and specifies any fields in these nodes for which this profile requires less than full support.
