X3DBoundedObject, X3DChildNode, X3DNode, X3DUrlObject
All Known Implementing Classes:
Inline
public interface Inline extends X3DChildNode, X3DBoundedObject, X3DUrlObject
Inline can load another X3D or VRML model into the current scene via url.

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. Inline node tooltip: [X3DGroupingNode,X3DBoundedObject,X3DUrlObject,X3DVisibleObject] Inline can load another X3D or VRML model into the current scene via url.
