Figure 8.2 The Box Primitive Box contains the following Shape3Dobjects: FRONT = 0; BACK = 1; RIGHT = 2; LEFT = 3; TOP = 4; BOTTOM = 5; The identifiers are used as indices into the PrimitiveGroup Node. In other words, to retrieve the FRONT face of the cube, you must call: Shape3D frontFace = box.getShape(Box.FRONT ); This is defined in Box.java as: public Shape3D getShape(int partId) { if (partId < FRONT || partId > BOTTOM) return null; return (Shape3D)((Group)getChild(0)).getChild(partId); } The faces of the Boxare Shape3Dobjects and are children of the first Nodeadded to the Group. The first Nodeof the Groupis a TransformGroupobject that allows the Boxto be moved as a whole. Thus, modifying the scale, rotation, and translation of the TransformGroup s Transform3Dapplies the scale, rotation, and translation to all of its child Nodesalso. The Sun example ConicWorld/BoxExample.java provides an example of creating Boxesand loading and applying texture images to Boxes. //Set Appearance attributes //first, create an appearance Appearance ap = new Appearance(); //create a colored material Color3f aColor = new Color3f(0.1f, 0.1f, 0.1f); Color3f eColor = new Color3f(0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f); Color3f dColor = new Color3f(0.8f, 0.8f, 0.8f); Color3f sColor = new Color3f(1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f); Material m = new Material(aColor, eColor, dColor, sColor, 80.0f); 111
