Numerous X3D nodes are available for presenting points, lines, and a variety of polygonal meshes.
Many kinds of geometry can be created using
PointSet,
LineSet,
IndexedLineSet,
IndexedFaceSet,
ElevationGrid
and
Extrusion
nodes.
Each is placed individually inside a
Shape
node.
Geometric properties are controlled by
Color,
ColorRGBA,
Coordinate,
CoordinateDouble,
Normal,
TextureCoordinate,
TextureCoordinateGenerator
and
MultiTextureCoordinate
nodes.
