public class NurbsCurveObject
extends X3DConcreteNode
implements NurbsCurve
NurbsCurve is a 3D curve analogous to NurbsPatchSurface.

X3D node tooltip: [X3DParametricGeometryNode] NurbsCurve is a 3D curve analogous to NurbsPatchSurface.
  • Hint: the contained controlPoint field can hold a Coordinate or CoordinateDouble node.

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.

      • Warning: each USE value must match a corresponding DEF value that is defined earlier in the scene.


      Note: each USE node is still an independent object, with the USE value matching the DEF value in the preceding object.

      Warning: invoking the setUSE() method on this node resets all other fields to their default values (except for containerField) and also releases all child nodes.

      Warning: no other operations can be performed to modify a USE node other than setting an alternate containerField value.
      Specified by:
      setUSE in class X3DConcreteNode
      Parameters:
      newValue - is new value for the USE field.
      Returns:
      NurbsCurveObject - namely this same object to allow sequential method pipelining (i.e. consecutive method invocations on the same object).

    • setUSE

      public NurbsCurveObject setUSE​(SFStringObject newValue)
      Assign typed object value to SFString USE field, similar to setUSE(String).
      Parameters:
      newValue - is new value for the USE field.
      Returns:
      NurbsCurveObject - namely this same object to allow sequential method pipelining (i.e. consecutive method invocations on the same object).

    • getCssClass

      public NurbsCurveObject setUSE​(NurbsCurveObject DEFnode)
      Assign a USE reference to another DEF node of same node type, similar to setUSE(String).

      Warning: note that the setUSE() method on this node resets all other fields to their default values (except for containerField) and also releases all child nodes.
