Class CADLayer

All Implemented Interfaces:
CADLayer, X3DChildNode, X3DNode, X3DBoundedObject, X3DGroupingNode

public class CADLayer extends X3DConcreteNode implements CADLayer
CADLayer nodes define a hierarchy that shows layer structure for a Computer-Aided Design (CAD) model.

Warning: this is an abstract interface that cannot be instantiated as a concrete object. Java programmers typically only need to use concrete objects provided by the org.web3d.x3d.jsail classes. CADLayer node tooltip: (X3D version 3.1 or later) [X3DGroupingNode,X3DVisibleObject] CADLayer nodes define a hierarchy that shows layer structure for a Computer-Aided Design (CAD) model. CADLayer is a Grouping node that can contain CADAssembly and most nodes.
Package hint: This org.web3d.x3d.jsail concrete class is used for implementing a standalone X3D object as a Plain Old Java Object (POJO). If you are writing Java code for use inside an X3D Script node, compile separate code using only the org.web3d.x3d.sai package instead.
