Class SceneViewport

java.lang.Object
net.ixdarklord.coolcatcanvas.api.client.viewport.SceneViewport
All Implemented Interfaces:
AutoCloseable
@Experimental public final class SceneViewport extends Object implements AutoCloseable
A small 3D scene drawn to a texture of its own: blocks, whole structures, entities and items' icons, seen from a camera that circles them. Because it is a texture, what it shows is always kept inside the rectangle it is drawn in, wherever that is: a GUI (SceneViewportWidget), or a face in the world (use texture() with any textured render type). 

 SceneViewport view = SceneViewport.create(MyMod.id("altar_view"), 256, 256);
 view.block(BlockPos.ZERO, Blocks.BEACON.defaultBlockState()).camera(35, 28).spin(16);
 // every frame it is on screen:
 view.use();
It is drawn only when it has to be: when its scene or camera has changed, or, while it spins or holds entities (which move), a set number of times a second (refreshRate). A viewport nobody has used for a couple of seconds is not drawn at all. Everything in it is lit as the world lights it: a block's top brightest, each side its own shade, whichever way the scene is turned. The texture is upside down, as every texture drawn to is: show it with its V flipped (the widget does). Client code only; make and change viewports on the render thread.

  • Method Details

    • create

      public static SceneViewport create(net.minecraft.resources.ResourceLocation texture, int width, int height)
      Parameters:
      texture - the id its texture is registered under, for drawing it
      width - the texture's size in pixels: what it is drawn at is up to whoever draws it
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if a viewport already has that id

    • texture

      public net.minecraft.resources.ResourceLocation texture()

    • width

      public int width()

    • height

      public int height()

    • clear

      public SceneViewport clear()

    • text

      public SceneViewport text(net.minecraft.util.FormattedCharSequence text, float x, float y, int color, float scale)
      A line of text laid flat on the picture (SceneViewport.PlacedText). A picture of nothing but text is drawn once, as sharp as its texture is large: so text can be shown as a texture, to be cut, stretched or bent with what it is on.

    • clearText

      public SceneViewport clearText()
      Takes away the text laid on the picture, leaving the scene.

    • texts

      public List<SceneViewport.PlacedText> texts()

    • block

      public SceneViewport block(net.minecraft.core.BlockPos pos, net.minecraft.world.level.block.state.BlockState state)

    • blocks

      public SceneViewport blocks(Map<net.minecraft.core.BlockPos,net.minecraft.world.level.block.state.BlockState> all)
      A structure, or any build: every block of it.

    • entity

      public SceneViewport entity(net.minecraft.world.entity.Entity entity, double x, double y, double z, float yaw)
      An entity standing with its feet at a place. It is drawn as it is each time the viewport is: animate it by ticking it.

    • item

      public SceneViewport item(net.minecraft.world.item.ItemStack stack, double x, double y, double z, float size)
      An item's icon. A scene of icons is a picture of them: look straight on with camera(0, 0) and no spin, and it is drawn once. They are lit as the game lights icons in its screens.

    • items

      public List<SceneViewport.PlacedItem> items()

    • frame

      public SceneViewport frame(double span, double x, double y, double z)
      Fixes what the picture shows, in place of fitting the scene to it: span of the scene's own units across the picture's width, with a point of the scene at its middle. For laying a scene out to match something drawn about it (a grid's frames, say). A span of 0 goes back to fitting.

    • ground

      public SceneViewport ground(double y, int margin, int floorArgb, int lineArgb, boolean shadows)
      A ground under the scene at a height, turning with it: a floor in a colour, as large as the whole blocks the scene stands over and margin blocks more each way, a grid of lines on it at the block edges in another colour (both ARGB, their alpha how strong they are; 0 for none), and, with shadows, a soft shadow under each entity, as wide as the entity.

      public SceneViewport zoom(float zoom)
      How large the scene is drawn: 1 fits all of it in view from any side.

    • spin

      public SceneViewport spin(float degreesPerSecond)

    • refreshRate

      public SceneViewport refreshRate(int timesPerSecond)
      How many times a second a viewport that moves (it spins, or has entities) is drawn again. 60 by default, which turns smoothly; lower it for a large scene that need not.

      public float pitch()

    • zoom

      public float zoom()

    • refreshRate

      public int refreshRate()

    • use

      public void use()
      Says the viewport is being shown this frame. Without it for a couple of seconds, the viewport stops being drawn.

    • isReady

      public boolean isReady()
      Whether the viewport has been drawn at least once, so that its texture exists: it is, from the frame after it is first used.

    • refresh

      public void refresh()
      Has the viewport drawn again though nothing of its own changed: a block's model, or an entity, did.

    • close

      public void close()
      Frees the texture. The viewport draws nothing after this.
