Detailed Description

The SbColor class contains the red, green and blue components which make up a color value.

This class is used within other classes in Coin. It inherits the SbVec3f class, interpreting the 3 component vector as a vector in the RGB cube where the red, green and blue components corresponds to x, y and z respectively.

SbColor also adds a few extra methods for convenient handling of setting and getting color values as 32 bit packed values or as HSV values.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

SbColor::SbColor

(

void

)

Default constructor. The color value will be uninitialized.

SbColor::SbColor

(

const SbVec3f &

v

)

Construct and initialize an SbColor with the red, green and blue values given by the v vector.

SbColor::SbColor

(

const float *const

rgb

)

Construct and initialize an SbColor with the red, green and blue taken from given rgb array.

SbColor::SbColor	(	const float	r,
		const float	g,
		const float	b
	)

Construct and initialize an SbColor with the given red, green and blue values.

Member Function Documentation

SbColor & SbColor::setHSVValue	(	float	hue,
		float	saturation,
		float	value
	)

Set the color as a hue, saturation, value triplet. The hue component should be normalized to within [0, 1] before you call this method, where 0 is equal to 0° and 1 is equal to 360°.

See also:

getHSVValue().

SbColor & SbColor::setHSVValue

(

const float

hsv[3]

)

Set the color as a hue, saturation, value triplet. The hue component should be normalized to within [0, 1] before you call this method, where 0 is equal to 0° and 1 is equal to 360°.

See also:

getHSVValue().

void SbColor::getHSVValue	(	float &	h,
		float &	s,
		float &	v
	)			const

Return the color as a hue, saturation, value triplet.

See also:

setHSVValue().

void SbColor::getHSVValue

(

float

hsv[3]

)

const

Return the color as a hue, saturation, value triplet.

See also:

setHSVValue().

SbColor & SbColor::setPackedValue	(	const uint32_t	rgba,
		float &	transparency
	)

Set the color value as a 32 bit combined red/green/blue/alpha value. Each component is 8 bit wide (i.e. from 0x00 to 0xff), and the red value should be stored leftmost, like this: 0xRRGGBBAA.

The transparency value is not stored internally in SbColor, just converted to a transparency value in [0, 1] and returned in the transparency field. A value of 1.0 means completely transparent and a value of 0.0 is completely opaque.

See also:

getPackedValue().

uint32_t SbColor::getPackedValue

(

const float

transparency = 0.0f

)

const

Return color as a 32 bit packed integer in the form 0xRRGGBBAA. The transparency part of the return value is taken from the supplied transparency argument.

setPackedValue().
