Multi Face Class

A multiface transition animates an object having multiple rectangular faces, e.g. a box. An HTML element can be mapped on each of the faces. The number size and position of the individual faces can be arbitrary. Using the newFace method faces can be added. Later on using selFace a face can be selected for further operations.

The MultiFace Class has an important subclass taccglDddBox Class which stands for rectangular boxes with 6 faces. The documentation and examples are useful for MultiFace as well.

The MultiFace Class inherits from Transition Class and so all e.g. the methods for controlling movement can be used. In addition specific methods are:

• taccglMultiFace.newFace - Add new face
• taccglMultiFace.selFace - Select a face
• taccglMultiFace.material - Use Material for selected face
• taccglMultiFace.blend - Set transparency values/set up blend animation for selected face
• taccglMultiFace.color - Set background color / color animation for selected face
• taccglMultiFace.map - Map portion of texture canvas
• taccglMultiFace.mapTo - Animate mapped portion of texture canvas
• taccglMultiFace.mapFrom - Animate mapped portion of texture canvas
• taccglMultiFace.mapActor - Map other HTML element and paint
• taccglMultiFace.mapElement - Map other HTML element
• taccglMultiFace.mapMirrorY - Mirror texture in Y direction
• taccglMultiFace.mapMirrorX - Mirror texture in X direction
• taccglMultiFace.mapRelative - Map texture relative to current HTML element
• taccglMultiFace.mapClip - Clip mapped texture
• taccglMultiFace.restrict - Take part of Object for Animation
• taccglMultiFace.cont - Create new continuing transition
