Description

DrawCursor2D displays a 2D cross-hair cursor and translates the cursor's screen coordinates to a field. DrawCursor2D is a macro that combines the following:

•      a UItwoPoint interactor

•      GDdraw2d_cursor

•      a user interface, which the user accesses through the Module Panel provided by the DataViewer or ModuleStack (as appropriate)

Input Ports

view

A connection to a view.

obj_in

An optional connection to an object. Without an object, DrawCursor2D converts the selected point to a field in the camera's coordinate system. With an object, DrawCursor2D converts the selected point to a field in the object's coordinate system.

Parameters

immed

UItoggle. This parameter when set to 1 indicates that immediate mode is on. In immediate mode, DrawCursor2D translates the cursor's position to a field continually during the UItwoPoint interaction. When immed is set to 0, DrawCursor2D translates the cursor's position to a field only at the end of the UItwoPoint interaction.

Output Ports

out_mesh

A mesh representing the point in the appropriate coordinate system.
