SetCurrentStack Method

In This Topic

Sets a sequence of BlockReferences as current.

When a BlockReference is set as current, the following changes happen:

- A Block is added to the devDept.Eyeshot.ViewportLayout.ParentBlocks with the entities of the current scene except the devDept.Eyeshot.Entities.BlockReference that is set as current.

- The Entities collection contains the current Block entities.

- The current devDept.Eyeshot.Entities.BlockReference is pushed on the CurrentBlockReferencesData stack.

- The BoxMin and BoxMax are updated to consider the new entities, without the CurrentTransformation.

Since the collection is modified, this method can't be called in a Foreach loop.

To add or remove entities from a BlockReference set as current, do it on the Entities and not on the Block.Entities.

Syntax

Visual Basic
C#

'Declaration
 
Public Sub SetCurrentStack( _
   ByVal parents As Stack(Of BlockReference), _
   Optional ByVal updateBoundingBox As Boolean _
)

public void SetCurrentStack( 
   Stack<BlockReference> parents,
   bool updateBoundingBox
)

Parameters

parents: The stack of BlockReferences to set as current (the bottom-most is the first parent, which must be in the Entities, the top-most is the last parent of the hierarchy). If null or empty, the current BlockReference is unset.
updateBoundingBox: If true, updates the scene bounding box. Set it to false for better performances in off-screen methods that call this to just use the devDept.Eyeshot.Entities.BlockReference.AccumulatedParentsTransform
