vtkImplicitWindowFunction - implicit function maps another implicit function to lie within a specified range

Description:

vtkImplicitWindowFunction is used to modify the output of another implicit function to lie within a specified "window", or function range. This can be used to add "thickness" to cutting or clipping functions. This class works as follows. First, it evaluates the function value of the user-specified implicit function. Then, based on the window range specified, it maps the function value into the window values specified.

Detailed Method Descriptions:

Construct object with window range (0,1) and window values (0,1).

static vtkImplicitWindowFunction *New ()

Specify an implicit function to operate on.

	void SetImplicitFunction (vtkImplicitFunction *)
	vtkImplicitFunction *GetImplicitFunction ()

Specify the range of function values which are considered to lie within the window. WindowRange[0] is assumed to be less than WindowRange[1].

	void SetWindowRange (float ,float )
	void SetWindowRange (float *)
	float *GetWindowRange ()

Specify the range of output values that the window range is mapped into. This is effectively a scaling and shifting of the original function values.

	void SetWindowValues (float ,float )
	void SetWindowValues (float *)
	float *GetWindowValues ()

Override modified time retrieval because of object dependencies.

unsigned long GetMTime ()
