Script language
Introduction
Our animations are described in scripts. A script is composed of an ini- and a script-part. In the ini-part, the length of an animation and its execution mode (in real time or to save a video) is defined.|
[Ini]
LengthTimeUnit=4 LengthSeconds=2 RealTime=no ... |
A script instruction is build of four parts: Time Object Command Parameter
|
Low level instructions
| 'Cam' move object polar-coord zoom-factor | Moves the camera to a position on the surrounding sphere of an object |
| 'Cam' rotate object axis angle | Rotates the cam around the center of an object and a given axis by an angle in degrees |
| 'Cam' rotateCamZ value | Rotates the around their own z-axis |
| 'System' setClipplane on|off left|right|... percent toClip (notToClip) | |
| Clips the scene in relation to an object. Objects not to clip can be given. | |
| 'System' setBackground R,G,B | Sets the background of the scenes |
| 'Object' setTransparency value | Sets the transparency of an object to a value between 0...1 |
| 'Object' setColor R,G,B | Sets the color of an object to an R,G,B value |
| 'Object' setVisible true|false | Switches an object on or off (it's not the same as setTransparency 1) |
| 'Object' setQuality value | Sets the quality an objects is rendered in |
| 'Object' setSelected true|false | Selects or deselects an object |
| 'Object' setStyle value | Sets the draw style of an object |
| 'Object' shiftX|shiftY|shiftZ value | Shifts an object by a given value |
| 'Object' volumeRendering value | Enables volume rendering |
High level instructions
High level instructions are composed of low level instrcutions. We present here selection of our high level instructions.| sceneOverview | Depending on the case (liver, ent, knee) this instruction gives an overview of the scene, e.g. by rotating the cam and showing all objects |
| objectOverview | Depending on the object, this instruction shows an short overview of the object, e.g. by emphasizing important parts |
| emphasize | Emphasize an object, e.g. by changing color, transparency and camera position |
| setBaseColors | Sets the default colors and transparencies for all objects |
| view | Abstracts the move-instruction |
| init | Initialize a scene (sets background, colors, cam postion) |
