SceneWindow Properties Table

Property ID	Long Name (English)	Description	R/W	RTE
C55E800	Scene	Reads or writes the reference number for the scene.	Read/Write	Yes
C55E801	ModelView Matrix	Reads or writes a matrix that contains the translation, rotation, and scale values for the 3D scene that appears in the scene window.	Read/Write	Yes
C55E802	Background Color	Reads or writes the RGBA color value for the background of the 3D scene.	Read/Write	Yes
C55E807	Camera Controller:Type	Reads or writes the configuration of the scene camera. Click and hold the left mouse button and drag the cursor to operate the camera.	Read/Write	Yes
C55E809	Projection Matrix	Read or writes the matrix that represents the transformations LabVIEW uses to project the 3D scene in the scene window.	Read/Write	Yes
C55E80A	Window Bounds	Reads or writes the left, right, top, and bottom bounds of the scene window.	Read/Write	Yes
C55E80B	Window Title	Reads or writes the title of the scene window.	Read/Write	Yes
C55E80C	Window State	Reads or writes the state of the scene window.	Read/Write	Yes
C55E80D	Automatic Projection Mode	Reads or writes whether LabVIEW automatically updates the projection mode when you resize the scene window.	Read/Write	Yes
C55E80E	Camera Controller:Auto Redraw	Reads or writes if the scene window becomes invalid when you use the camera controller.	Read/Write	Yes

SceneWindow Methods Table

Method ID	Long Name (English)	Description	RTE
C55E400	Setup Camera	Specifies the position of the camera relative to the scene.	Yes (Read/Write)
C55E401	Projection:Frustum	Sets coordinates to render the scene in a frustum-shaped view. This projection causes objects farther from the camera to appear smaller.	Yes (Read/Write)
C55E402	Projection:Orthographic	Sets coordinates to render the scene in a box-shaped view. The distance of the camera from the objects does not affect the size of the objects in this view.	Yes (Read/Write)
C55E403	Projection:Perspective	Sets coordinates to render the scene in a frustum-shaped view, where you specify an angle for the horizontal and vertical viewing fields. This projection causes objects closer to the camera to appear larger in size. This method is similar to the Projection:Frustum method.	Yes (Read/Write)
C55E404	Render to Image	Returns an image of the scene.	Yes (Read/Write)
C55E405	Pick	Creates a ray that originates at the specified point and returns an array of node paths for objects that intersect that ray.	Yes (Read/Write)
C55E406	Redraw	Redraws the 3D scene in the scene window.	Yes (Read/Write)
C55E407	AutoFocus	Positions the camera to view all 3D scene objects. Use this method to automatically focus and render the scene in an exterior window.	Yes (Read/Write)
C55E408	WindowToObjectCoords	Converts a point in window coordinates to points in object coordinates on the near and far clip planes.	Yes (Read/Write)
