Initializes a new body data object for editing.

    GSErrCode  ACAPI_Body_Create (
        const Modeler::MeshBody*           body,
        const API_OverriddenAttribute*     bodyMaterialMapTable,
        void**                             bodyData
    );

 

Parameters

body

[in] The body object to start the editing with. nullptr can be passed to create a new body.

bodyMaterialMapTable 

[in] The initial material override structure list of the polygons of the body. nullptr can be passed in case of a new body.

bodyData 

[out] The body data object, that shall be passed to further editing functions.

 

Return Values

NoError

The function has completed with success.

APIERR_BADPARS

The passed parameter is nullptr; bodyData

For other common API errors see the API Errors document.

 

Remarks

This function is used to create a body data object for further editing.

Input parameters can be nullptr, but can be passed from the API_ElementMemo of a morph element.

 

Example

API_ElementMemo memo = {};

// create a new body data object
void* bodyData = nullptr;
err = ACAPI_Body_Create (nullptr, nullptr, &bodyData);

/* add vertices, edges and polygons here... */

// insert the resulting body, pens and materials to the memo
err = ACAPI_Body_Finish (bodyData, &memo.morphBody, &memo.morphMaterialMapTable);

// dispose the body data object
err = ACAPI_Body_Dispose (&bodyData);

/* create the new morph object from the memo... */

 

Requirements

Version: API 16 or later

Header: ACAPinc.h
