## Implemented Interfaces

Gwy3DView implements AtkImplementorIface and GtkBuildable.

## Includes

    #include <libgwydgets/gwydgets.h>

## Description

Gwy3DView displays a data field as a threedimensional heightfield using OpenGL. You can create a new 3D view for a data container with `gwy_3d_view_new()`. By default, it inherits properties like palette from data view settings, but supports separate settings -- see `gwy_3d_view_set_gradient_key()` et al.

Gwy3DView allows the user to interactively rotate, scale, z-scale the data or move lights, depending on its movement state. There are no controls provided for mode change, you have to provide some yourself and set the movement mode with `gwy_3d_view_set_movement_type()`.

You have initialize GtkGLExt with `gtk_gl_init_check()` and then Gwyddion's OpenGL with `gwy_widgets_gl_init()` before you can use Gwy3DView. These functions may not always succeed, see their description for more. If OpenGL initialization fails (possibly because its support was not compiled in) Gwy3DView cannot be even instantiated.

See `gwy_3d_view_set_reduced_size()` for details.

#### Parameters

gwy3dview | A 3D data view widget. |

#### Returns

The reduced data size.

Note since 2.44 the reduced size has no influence because the 3D view does not downsample anything.

### gwy_3d_view_set_reduced_size ()

    void
    gwy_3d_view_set_reduced_size (Gwy3DView *gwy3dview,

Sets the reduced data size of a 3D view.

Data larger than reduced size may be shown downsampled during transforms and other changes to speed up the rendering. Final, full-size rendering is then performed after a timeout.

In case of the original data are not square, the `reduced_size` is the greater size of the downsampled data, the other dimension is proportional to the original size.

Changes in reduced size do not cause immediate redraw when an operation is pending and the view is shown in reduced size. It only affects future downsampling.

Note since 2.44 the reduced size has no influence because the 3D view does not downsample anything.

#### Parameters

gwy3dview | A 3D data view widget. |
reduced_size | New reduced data size. |

                                   Gwy3DMovement movement);

Sets the type of widget response on the mouse motion event.

#### Parameters

#### Returns

A newly allocated GdkPixbuf a copy of the framebuffer.

Since: 2.54

#### Parameters

gwy3dview | A 3D data view widget. |

                                   (gboolean disable);

Globally disables drawing of 3D view axes.

If axis drawing is disabled, axes are never drawn. If it is not disabled, their rendering depends on the 3D view setup.

This function is a hack and exists to work around various GL implementations that crash on pixmap drawing operations.

#### Parameters

disable | `TRUE` to disable 3D view axes globally, `FALSE` to enable them. |

Since: 2.14
