Member Function Documentation

virtual bool Animate (  unsigned int  dTime  )  [pure virtual]

Default animation handling. Does internal bookkeeping and records the current animation time. Reimplemented from Node. Implemented in Rotator, and Shuttle.

float GetSpeed (   )  const [inline]

Returns the current animation speed.

virtual void Render (   )  [pure virtual]

Renders the Animator. An Animator does not actually cause anything to be drawn, but instead the Render() function modifies the modelview matrix to represent the current position or state of the Animator. Implements Node. Implemented in Rotator, and Shuttle.

void SetSpeed (  float  speed  )  [inline]

Sets the speed of the animation. Parameters: speed  the animator's new speed. The units of speed vary depending upon the specific animator, typically units per second, or degrees per second.
