public class Squash
extends NodeComponent
Squash is a component object that affects geometry referenced by a Shape3D or Morph node. The Squash object applies an affine 3D transformation that may contain a non-uniform scale and/or a skew. It is intended to be used as scaling operation that stretches or squashes geometry (e.g., to turn a sphere into an ellipsoid).

The Squash object is the only element within the scene graph that can contain a transform with a non-uniform scale or shear.

Variable Index

o ALLOW_TRANSFORM_READ
Specifies that the object allows read access to its transform information.
o ALLOW_TRANSFORM_WRITE
Specifies that the object allows write access to its transform information.

Constructor Index

o Squash()
Constructs and initializes a Squash object with an identity transform.
o Squash(Transform3D)
Constructs and initializes a Squash object with the specified transform.

Method Index

o getTransform(Transform3D)
Retrieves the transform component of this Squash object.
o setTransform(Transform3D)
Sets the transform component of this Squash object.

Variables

o ALLOW_TRANSFORM_READ 
 public static final int ALLOW_TRANSFORM_READ
Specifies that the object allows read access to its transform information.

o ALLOW_TRANSFORM_WRITE 
 public static final int ALLOW_TRANSFORM_WRITE
Specifies that the object allows write access to its transform information.

Constructors

o Squash 
 public Squash()
Constructs and initializes a Squash object with an identity transform.

o Squash 
 public Squash(Transform3D transform)
Constructs and initializes a Squash object with the specified transform.

Parameters:
transform - the new affine transform used in this squash or stretch operation
Throws: BadTransformException
if the transform is not affine

Methods

o setTransform 
 public final void setTransform(Transform3D transform)
Sets the transform component of this Squash object.

Parameters:
transform - the new affine transform used in this squash or stretch operation
Throws: BadTransformException
if the transform is not affine
Throws: CapabilityNotSetException
if appropriate capability is not set and this object is part of live or compiled scene graph
o getTransform 
 public final void getTransform(Transform3D transform)
Retrieves the transform component of this Squash object.

Parameters:
the - transform object that will receive the transform component
Throws: CapabilityNotSetException
if appropriate capability is not set and this object is part of live or compiled scene graph
