c3dl.Camera()

Method Detail

{Array} getDir()

Get the direction of the camera.

Returns:: {Array} vector

{float} getFarClippingPlane()

Get the far clipping plane.

Returns:: {float} far clipping plane value.

{float} getFieldOfView()

Get the vertical field of view for this camera in degrees.

Returns:: {float} field of view is greater than 0 and less than 180.

{Array} getLeft()

Get the left vector of the camera.

Returns:: {Array} vector

{float} getNearClippingPlane()

Get the near clipping plane.

Returns:: {float} near clipping plane value.

{Array} getPosition()

Get the position of the camera.

Returns:: {Array} A three element array which contains the position of the camera.

{Array} getUp()

Get the up vector of the camera.

Returns:: {Array}

setFarClippingPlane(fcp)

The far clipping plane should not be set to an extremely large value. This can create depth buffer precision problems such as z-fighting. see http://www.opengl.org/resources/faq/technical/depthbuffer.htm for more information.

Parameters:
{float} fcp: Must be larger than 0.

setFieldOfView(fov)

Set the field of view for this camera in degrees.

Parameters:
{float} fov: Specified in degrees. Must be greater than 0 and less than 180.

setNearClippingPlane(ncp)

The near clipping plane must be set to a positive value.

Parameters:
{float} ncp: Must be larger than 0.

{String} toString(delimiter)

Get a string representation of this camera.

Parameters:
{String} delimiter Optional, Default: ",": A string used to separate the member variables of the object.

Returns:: {String} a string representation of this class.
