List of all members.

## Detailed Description

The SoShapeKit class provides templates to insert what is usually needed for shape nodes.

Node kit structure (new entries versus parent class marked with arrow prefix):

      CLASS SoShapeKit
      -->"this"
            "callbackList"
            "topSeparator"
               "pickStyle"
               "appearance"
               "units"
               "transform"
               "texture2Transform"
      -->      "materialBinding"
      -->      "normalBinding"
      -->      "textureCoordinateBinding"
      -->      "shapeHints"
      -->      "coordinate3"
      -->      "coordinate4"
      -->      "normal"
      -->      "textureCoordinate2"
      -->      "profileCoordinate2"
      -->      "profileCoordinate3"
      -->      "profileList"
               "childList"
      -->      "textureCoordinateFunction"
      -->      "localTransform"
      -->      "shapeSeparator"
      -->         "shape"

## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

SoShapeKit::SoShapeKit | ( | void |  | ) |

| Constructor.

SoShapeKit::~SoShapeKit | ( |  | ) | `[protected, virtual]`

| Destructor.

## Member Function Documentation

void SoShapeKit::initClass | ( | void |  | ) | `[static]`

| Does initialization common for all objects of the SoSeparatorKit class. This includes setting up the type system, among other things. Reimplemented from SoSeparatorKit.

void SoShapeKit::setDefaultOnNonWritingFields | ( | void |  | ) | `[protected, virtual]`

| (Be aware that this method is unlikely to be of interest to the application programmer who does not want to extend the library with new custom nodekits or draggers. If you indeed are writing extensions, see the information in the SoBaseKit class documentation.) This is a virtual method, and the code in it should call SoField::setDefault() with argument `TRUE` on part fields that should not be written upon scenegraph export operations. This is typically done when: field value is `NULL` and part is `NULL` by default it is a leaf SoGroup or SoSeparator node with no children it is a leaf listpart with no children and an SoGroup or SoSeparator container it is a non-leaf part and it's of SoGroup type and all fields are at their default values Subclasses should usually override this to do additional settings for new member fields. From the subclass, do remember to call "upwards" to your superclass' setDefaultOnNonWritingFields() method. Reimplemented from SoSeparatorKit.
