Detailed Description

All coordinates are converted using the StelProjector instance passed at construction. Because openGL is not thread safe, only one instance of StelPainter can exist at a time, enforcing thread safety. As a coding rule, no openGL calls should be performed when no instance of StelPainter exist. Typical usage is to create a local instance of StelPainter where drawing operations are needed.

static void StelPainter::computeFanDisk	(	float	radius,
		int	innerFanSlices,
		int	level,
		QVector< double > &	vertexArr,
		QVector< float > &	texCoordArr
	)

static

The disk is made up of concentric circles with increasing refinement. The number of slices of the outmost circle is (innerFanSlices<<level).

Parameters

radius	the radius of the disk.
innerFanSlices	the number of slices.
level	the number of concentric circles.
vertexArr	the vertex array in which the resulting vertices are returned.
texCoordArr	the vertex array in which the resulting texture coordinates are returned.

static StelVertexArray StelPainter::computeSphereNoLight	(	float	radius,
		float	oneMinusOblateness,
		int	slices,
		int	stacks,
		int	orientInside = `0`,
		bool	flipTexture = `false`,
		float	topAngle = `0.0f`,
		float	bottomAngle = `M_PI`
	)

static

Parameters

radius
oneMinusOblateness
slices	number of vertical segments ("meridian zones")
stacks	number of horizontal segments ("latitude zones")
orientInside	1 to have normals point inside, e.g. for Milky Way, Zodiacal Light, etc.
flipTexture	if texture should be mapped to inside of sphere, e.g. Milky Way.
topAngle	GZ: new parameter. An opening angle [radians] at top of the sphere. Useful if there is an empty region around the top pole, like North Galactic Pole.
bottomAngle	GZ: new parameter. An opening angle [radians] at bottom of the sphere. Useful if there is an empty region around the bottom pole, like South Galactic Pole.

static void StelPainter::deinitGLShaders ( )

static

This method needs to be called once before exit.

void StelPainter::drawFromArray	(	DrawingMode	mode,
		int	count,
		int	offset = `0`,
		bool	doProj = `true`,
		const unsigned short *	indices = `Q_NULLPTR`
	)

Parameters

mode	The type of primitive to draw. If
indices	is Q_NULLPTR, this operation will consume
count	values from the enabled arrays, starting at
offset.	Else it will consume
count	elements of
indices,starting	at
offset,which	are used to index into the enabled arrays.

void StelPainter::drawGreatCircleArc	(	const Vec3d &	start,
		const Vec3d &	stop,
		const SphericalCap *	clippingCap = `Q_NULLPTR`,
		void()(const Vec3d &screenPos, const Vec3d &direction, void userData)	viewportEdgeIntersectCallback = `Q_NULLPTR`,
		void *	userData = `Q_NULLPTR`
	)

The angle between start and stop must be < 180 deg. The algorithm ensures that the line will look smooth, even for non linear distortion. Each time the small circle crosses the edge of the viewport, the viewportEdgeIntersectCallback is called with the screen 2d position, direction of the currently drawn arc toward the inside of the viewport.

Parameters

clippingCap if not set to Q_NULLPTR, tells the painter to try to clip part of the region outside the cap.

void StelPainter::drawLine2d	(	float	x1,
		float	y1,
		float	x2,
		float	y2
	)

Parameters

x1	x position of point 1 in the viewport in pixels.
y1	y position of point 1 in the viewport in pixels.
x2	x position of point 2 in the viewport in pixels.
y2	y position of point 2 in the viewport in pixels.

void StelPainter::drawPath	(	const QVector< Vec3d > &	points,
		const QVector< Vec4f > &	colors
	)

The points should be already tesselated to ensure that the path will look smooth. The algorithm take care of cutting the path if it crosses a viewport discontinuity.

void StelPainter::drawPoint2d	(	float	x,
		float	y
	)

Parameters

x	x position in the viewport in pixels.
y	y position in the viewport in pixels.

void StelPainter::drawRect2d	(	float	x,
		float	y,
		float	width,
		float	height,
		bool	textured = `true`
	)

This method is not thread safe.

Parameters

x	x position of the top left corner in the viewport in pixel.
y	y position of the tope left corner in the viewport in pixel.
width	width in pixel.
height	height in pixel.
textured	whether the current texture should be used for painting.

void StelPainter::drawSmallCircleArc	(	const Vec3d &	start,
		const Vec3d &	stop,
		const Vec3d &	rotCenter,
		void()(const Vec3d &screenPos, const Vec3d &direction, void userData)	viewportEdgeIntersectCallback = `Q_NULLPTR`,
		void *	userData = `Q_NULLPTR`
	)

The angle between start and stop must be < 180 deg. The algorithm ensures that the line will look smooth, even for non linear distortion. Each time the small circle crosses the edge of the viewport, the viewportEdgeIntersectCallback is called with the screen 2d position, direction of the currently drawn arc toward the inside of the viewport. Example: A latitude circle has 0/0/sin(latitude) as rotCenter. If rotCenter is equal to 0,0,0, the method draws a great circle.

void StelPainter::drawSphericalRegion	(	const SphericalRegion *	region,
		SphericalPolygonDrawMode	drawMode = `SphericalPolygonDrawModeFill`,
		const SphericalCap *	clippingCap = `Q_NULLPTR`,
		bool	doSubDivise = `true`,
		double	maxSqDistortion = `5.`
	)

Parameters

region	The SphericalRegion to draw.
drawMode	define whether to draw the outline or the fill or both.
clippingCap	if not set to Q_NULLPTR, tells the painter to try to clip part of the region outside the cap.
doSubDivise	if true tesselates the object to follow projection distortions. Typically set that to false if you think that the region is fully contained in the viewport.

void StelPainter::drawSprite2dMode	(	float	x,
		float	y,
		float	radius
	)

This method is not thread safe.

Parameters

x	x position in the viewport in pixel.
y	y position in the viewport in pixel.
radius	the half size of a square side in pixel.
v	direction vector of object to draw. Will draw only if this is in the visible hemisphere.

void StelPainter::drawSprite2dMode	(	float	x,
		float	y,
		float	radius,
		float	rotation
	)

This method is not thread safe.

Parameters

x	x position in the viewport in pixel.
y	y position in the viewport in pixel.
radius	the half size of a square side in pixel.
rotation	rotation angle in degree.

void StelPainter::drawStelVertexArray	(	const StelVertexArray &	arr,
		bool	checkDiscontinuity = `true`
	)

Parameters

void StelPainter::drawText	(	float	x,
		float	y,
		const QString &	str,
		float	angleDeg = `0.f`,
		float	xshift = `0.f`,
		float	yshift = `0.f`,
		bool	noGravity = `true`
	)

If the gravity label flag is set, uses drawTextGravity180.

Parameters

x	horizontal position of the lower left corner of the first character of the text in pixel.
y	horizontal position of the lower left corner of the first character of the text in pixel.
str	the text to print.
angleDeg	rotation angle in degree. Rotation is around x,y.
xshift	shift in pixel in the rotated x direction.
yshift	shift in pixel in the rotated y direction.
noGravity	don't take into account the fact that the text should be written with gravity.
v	direction vector of object to draw. GZ20120826: Will draw only if this is in the visible hemisphere.

QOpenGLFunctions* StelPainter::glFuncs ( )

inline

This is recommended to be used instead of QOpenGLContext::currentContext()->functions() when a StelPainter is available, and you only need to call a few GL functions directly.

static void StelPainter::initGLShaders ( )

static

This method needs to be called once at init.

static bool StelPainter::linkProg	(	class QOpenGLShaderProgram *	prog,
		const QString &	name
	)

static

Returns: true if the link was successful.

void StelPainter::setArrays	(	const Vec3d *	vertices,
		const Vec2f *	texCoords = `Q_NULLPTR`,
		const Vec3f *	colorArray = `Q_NULLPTR`,
		const Vec3f *	normalArray = `Q_NULLPTR`
	)

It is equivalent to calling enableClientStates() and set the array pointer for each array.

void StelPainter::setBlending	(	bool	enableBlending,
		GLenum	blendSrc = `GL_SRC_ALPHA`,
		GLenum	blendDst = `GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA`
	)

By default, blending is disabled. The additional parameters specify the blending mode, the default parameters are suitable for "normal" blending operations that you want in most cases. Blending will be automatically disabled when the StelPainter is destroyed.
