Far Tutorials
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
1. Basic Construction and Interpolation
|
|
***************************************
|
|
|
|
Tutorial 1.1
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
This tutorial presents the requisite steps to instantiate a mesh as a
|
|
Far::TopologyRefiner from simple topological data and to interpolate
|
|
vertex data associated with the mesh. `[code] <far_tutorial_1_1.html>`__

|
|
|
|
Tutorial 1.2
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
This tutorial makes use of a different vertex data definition for use when vertex
|
|
data is of arbitrary width. Uniform refinement is applied to data buffers of three
|
|
types: two of fixed but different sizes and the third a union of the two that is
|
|
dynamically sized and constructed. `[code] <far_tutorial_1_2.html>`__
|
|
|
|
2. Uniform Refinement and Primvar Data Types
|
|
********************************************
|
|
|
|
Tutorial 2.1
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
Building on the basic tutorial, this example shows how to instantiate a simple mesh,
|
|
refine it uniformly and then interpolate both 'vertex' and 'varying' primvar data.
|
|
`[code] <far_tutorial_2_1.html>`__

:target: images/far_tutorial_2_1.0.png
|
|
|
|
Tutorial 2.2
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
Building on the previous tutorial, this example shows how to instantiate a simple mesh,
|
|
refine it uniformly and then interpolate both 'vertex' and 'face-varying' primvar data.
|
|
The resulting interpolated data is output in Obj format, with the 'face-varying' data
|
|
recorded in the UV texture layout. `[code] <far_tutorial_2_2.html>`__
|

|
|
|
|
Tutorial 2.3
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
Building on previous tutorials, this example shows how to instantiate a simple mesh,
|
|
refine it uniformly, interpolate both 'vertex' and 'face-varying' primvar data, and
|
|
finally calculate approximated smooth normals. The resulting interpolated data is
|
|
output in Obj format. `[code] <far_tutorial_2_3.html>`__
|
|
|
|
3. Creating a Custom Far::TopologyRefinerFactory
|
|
************************************************
|
|
|
|
Tutorial 3.1
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
Previous tutorials have instantiated topology from a simple face-vertex list via the
|
|
Far::TopologyDescriptor and its TopologyRefinerFactory. This tutorial shows how to
|
|
more efficiently convert an existing high-level topology representation to a
|
|
Far::TopologyDescriptor with a custom factory class. `[code] <far_tutorial_3_1.html>`__
|
|
|
|
4. Construction and Usage of Far::StencilTables
|
|
***********************************************
|
|
|
|
Tutorial 4.1
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
This tutorial shows how to create and manipulate a StencilTable. Factorized stencils
|
|
are used to efficiently interpolate vertex primvar data buffers.
|
|
`[code] <far_tutorial_4_1.html>`__
|
|
|
|
Tutorial 4.2
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
This tutorial shows how to create and manipulate StencilTables for both 'vertex' and
|
|
'varying' primvar data buffers: vertex positions and varying colors.
|
|
`[code] <far_tutorial_4_2.html>`__
|
|
|
|
Tutorial 4.3
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
This tutorial shows how to create and manipulate tables of cascading stencils to apply
|
|
hierarchical vertex edits. `[code] <far_tutorial_4_3.html>`__
|
|
|
|
5. Construction and Usage of Far::PatchTables
|
|
*********************************************
|
|
|
|
Tutorial 5.1
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
This tutorial shows how to compute points on the limit surface at arbitrary parametric
|
|
locations using a Far::PatchTable constructed from adaptive refinement.
|
|
`[code] <far_tutorial_5_1.html>`__

:target: images/far_tutorial_5_1.0.png
|
|
|
|
Tutorial 5.2
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
Building on the previous tutorial, this example shows how to manage the limit surface
|
|
of a potentially large mesh by creating and evaluating separate PatchTables for selected
|
|
groups of faces of the mesh. `[code] <far_tutorial_5_2.html>`__

Osd Tutorials
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
Tutorial 0
|
|
**********
|
|
This tutorial demonstrates the manipulation of Osd Evaluator and BufferDescriptor.
|

Hbr Tutorials
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
Use of Hbr is no longer recommended -- these tutorials are included solely for
|
|
historical reference.
|
|
|
|
Tutorial 0
|
|
**********
|
|
This tutorial presents, in a very succinct way, the requisite steps to
|
|
instantiate an Hbr mesh from simple topological data. `[code] <hbr_tutorial_0.html>`__
|
|
|
|
Tutorial 1
|
|
**********
|
|
This tutorial shows how to safely create Hbr meshes from arbitrary topology.
|
|
Because Hbr is a half-edge data structure, it cannot represent non-manifold
|
|
topology. Ensuring that the geometry used is manifold is a requirement to use
|
|
Hbr safely. This tutorial presents some simple tests to detect inappropriate
|
|
topology. `[code] <hbr_tutorial_1.html>`__
|
|
|
|
Tutorial 2
|
|
**********
|
|
This tutorial shows how to subdivide uniformly a simple Hbr mesh. We are
|
|
building upon previous tutorials and assuming a fully instantiated mesh:
|
|
we start with an HbrMesh pointer initialized from the same pyramid shape
|
|
used in hbr_tutorial_0. We then apply the Refine() function sequentially
|
|
to all the faces in the mesh to generate several levels of uniform
|
|
subdivision. The resulting data is then dumped to the terminal in Wavefront
|
|
OBJ format for inspection. `[code] <hbr_tutorial_2.html>`__
