The ACIS Modeling Visualization and Display framework comprises four components which facilitate the display list, faceting, and hidden line removal of an ACIS model. The flagship component of this ACIS Framework is the ACIS/HOOPS Bridge which supports the generation of HOOPS® display data from an ACIS model. In conjunction with the ACIS/HOOPS Bridge is the ACIS Faceter and two forms of hidden line removal (interactive and precise).
| Component | Description |
|---|---|
| HOOPS/ACIS Bridge | The HOOPS/ACIS Bridge encapsulates the work needed to connect ACIS modeler from Spatial to the HOOPS/3dGS. The bridge provides an API for controlling the manner in which ACIS' geometric tessellation is mapped to HOOPS primitives ... |
| Faceting | The Faceter Component (FCT) generates and controls approximate polygonal representations. The polygon approximations are used in all active and static rendering, in clearance analysis, and in operations where approximations are acceptable to simplify calculations ... |
| Interactive Hidden Line | The Interactive Hidden Line Component (IHL), creates views of ACIS model objects with hidden lines removed based on tessellated data ... |
| PHL V5 | The Precise Hidden Line Removal V5 Component (PHL V5), calculates hidden line data (based in actual modeling data) and draws hidden line representations of the model ... |
- Adaptive faceting now works on the fringe. This new behavior is switched on by adaptive_t_fringe. Refer to Faceter Release Notes/R20.}
