All Implemented Interfaces:: X3DChildNode, X3DNode, PositionDamper, X3DDamperNode, X3DFollowerNode

public class PositionDamperObject
extends X3DConcreteNode
implements PositionDamper

PositionDamper generates a series of position values that progressively change from initial value to destination value.

X3D node tooltip: (X3D version 3.2 or later) [X3DDamperNode] PositionDamper generates a series of position values that progressively change from initial value to destination value.

Hint: ROUTE value_changed output events to a <Transform> node's translation field, for example.

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.
