  • node - The scene item to convert.
  • defaultLevel - The default subdivision level of the item after conversion.

Return Value:

  • DZ_NO_ERROR on success, otherwise an error code.

DzNode : createPrimitive( DzSettings settings )

Creates a primitive based on the settings supplied.

Parameter(s):

  • settings - The settings that specify the type of primitive and corresponding dimensions.

Return Value:

  • The new primitive node in the scene. NULL if nothing was created.

void : getDefaultPrimitiveOptions( PrimitiveType type, DzSettings settings )

Populates a settings object with the default settings that are used to create a primitive.

Parameter(s):

  • type - The type of primitive shape to get the default options for.
  • settings - The settings object to populate with the individual settings that specify the type of primitive and corresponding dimensions.

Attention:

  • The “PrimaryAxis” setting values have the following meanings:
  • 0 = X+
  • 1 = X-
  • 2 = Y+
  • 3 = Y-
  • 4 = Z+
  • 5 = Z-
