WWWInline


Purpose:

This node is the unclassified node in the specification. The WWWInline node reads its children from anywhere in the World Wide Web.

FILE FORMAT/DEFAULTS

WWWInline {
	name		""	# SFString
	bboxSize	0 0 0	# SFVec3f
	bboxCenter	0 0 0	# SFVec3f
}
Explanation

Exactly when WWWInLine's children are read is not defined. The reading of the children may be delayed until the WWWInline is actually displayed. A WWWInline with an empty name ("") does nothing. The WWWInLine name field is an arbitrary URL.

The effect of referring to a non-VRML URL in a WWWInline node is undefined.

If the WWWInline's bboxSize field specifies a non-empty bounding box, then the node's object-space bounding box is determined by its bboxSize and bboxCenter fields. Keep in mind that a bounding box is non-empty when at least one of its dimensions is greater than zero. This allows an implementation to view-volume cull or LOD switch the WWWInline without reading its contents.

Example Use

The following code fragment is from FWorld1.wrl.

DEF NoName_1 WWWInline {
	name		"main000.wrl"
	bboxSize	5.425 3.401 3.223
	bboxCenter	2.713 1.662 0.599
}
