## Detailed Description

SoFloatElement is an abstract base class for elements that consists of a single float value.

This is the superclass of elements where the new element data replaces the old data, and where the data the element stores is a simple single precision floating point value.

This element is like a convenient light-weight version of the SoReplacedElement. It differs from the SoReplacedElement in that the set() and get() methods are already implemented, since it is known that subclasses will still contain just a single float value.

## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

## ~SoFloatElement()

SoFloatElement::~SoFloatElement | ( | void |  | ) |

protected virtual

Destructor.

## Member Function Documentation

## getClassTypeId()

SoType SoFloatElement::getClassTypeId | ( | void |  | ) |

static

This static method returns the SoType object associated with objects of this class.

## getClassStackIndex()

int SoFloatElement::getClassStackIndex | ( | void |  | ) |

static

This static method returns the state stack index for the class.

## initClass()

void SoFloatElement::initClass | ( | void |  | ) |

static

Initialize relevant common data for all instances, like the type system.

## init()

void SoFloatElement::init | ( | SoState * | state | ) |

virtual

Initializes the element to its default value. The default value is 0.0.

Reimplemented from SoElement.

Reimplemented in SoComplexityElement, SoCreaseAngleElement, SoDecimationPercentageElement, SoFocalDistanceElement, SoFontSizeElement, SoGLLineWidthElement, SoGLPointSizeElement, SoLineWidthElement, SoListenerGainElement, SoPointSizeElement, and SoTextureQualityElement.

## matches()

SbBool SoFloatElement::matches | ( | const SoElement * | element | ) | const

virtual

This function returns `TRUE` is the element matches another element (of the same class), with respect to cache validity.

If the application programmer's extension element has a matches() function, it should also have a copyMatchInfo() function.

Implements SoElement.

## copyMatchInfo()

SoElement * SoFloatElement::copyMatchInfo | ( | void |  | ) | const

virtual

This function creates a copy of the element that contains enough information to enable the matches() function to work.

Used to help with scene graph traversal caching operations.

Implements SoElement.

## print()

void SoFloatElement::print | ( | FILE * | file | ) | const

virtual

This function is for printing element information, and is used mostly for debugging purposes.

Reimplemented from SoElement.

## set() [1/2]

void SoFloatElement::set | ( | const int | index,
|  | SoState *const | state,
|  | SoNode *const | node,
|  | const float | value )

static

Static method for setting the value of an element in the given state at the given stack index.

## set() [2/2]

void SoFloatElement::set | ( | const int | stackIndex,
|  | SoState *const | state,
|  | const float | value )

static

Static method for setting the value of an element in the given state at the given stackIndex.

## get()

float SoFloatElement::get | ( | const int | index,
|  | SoState *const | state )

static

Static method to fetch the value of the element of this type from the given state at the given stack index.

## setElt()

void SoFloatElement::setElt | ( | float | value | ) |

virtual

Set element value.

Reimplemented in SoGLLineWidthElement, and SoGLPointSizeElement.

## Member Data Documentation

## data

float SoFloatElement::data

protected
