Properties
 NameDescription
Public propertyDXMesh Gets the DXMeshGeometry3D that is created from the GeometryModel3D.
Public propertyGeometryModel3D Gets the WPF's GeometryModel3D that is used to initialize this WpfGeometryModel3DNode
Public propertyIsCastingShadow Gets or sets a Boolean that specifies if this SceneNode is casing shadow. This means that if IsCastingShadow is true, then 3D objects rendered with this SceneNode will create shadow; if false shadow will not be created. Default value is true.
Public propertyIsReceivingShadow Gets or sets a Boolean that specifies if this SceneNode can receive shadow - this means that the shadow is rendered on the object(s) rendered by this SceneNode. Default value is true.

Methods
 NameDescription
Public methodCollectRenderableObjects The task of the CollectRenderableObjects method is to create objects derived from RenderablePrimitiveBase and add them to the appropriate RenderingQueue. This method is called at the beginning of RenderScene method call but only when the scene was significantly changed (number of SceneNodes is changed, material is significantly changed, etc.)
(Overrides ObjectNodeCollectRenderableObjects)
Public methodGetClosestHitResult GetClosestHitResult method returns a DXRayHitTestResult with the closest triangle hit by the specified ray. When no triangle is hit, null is returned.
Public methodGetDetailsText Returns a string with detailed description of this SceneNode.
(Overrides BaseWpfObjectNodeGetDetailsText(Boolean, Boolean, Boolean, Boolean, Boolean))
Public methodGetMesh Returns the mesh that is used by this SceneNode.
Public methodGetNextHitResult GetNextHitResult method continues hit testing from the previously returned hit test and returns a DXRayHitTestResult with the next hit triangle (not necessary the next closest triangle) or null if no other triangle is hit. This method can be used to get all hit results.
Public methodSortTrianglesByCameraDistance SortTrianglesByCameraDistance method sorts the triangle indices so that the triangles are sorted by camera distance - triangles that are farther away are rendered first. When the objects' world transformation is usually changed, then it is recommended to call this method with transformCamera parameter set to true. This transforms the camera's position by inverted world matrix and does not require to transform all positions. When objects' world transformation is not changed, then it is recommended to set transformCamera to false. This transforms all positions by world transform once and does not require to calculate the inverted world matrix.
Public methodUpdate Update method is called on each update phase (before render phase)
(Overrides SceneNodeUpdate)
Public methodUpdateBounds Updates the bounds of this SceneNode if the dirty flags indicates that the bounds could be changed of if the forceUpdate parameter is set to true
(Overrides SceneNodeUpdateBounds(Boolean))

Extension Methods
 NameDescription
Public Extension MethodGetGeometryModel3D Returns a WPF's GeometryModel3D that was used to create the specified sceneNode. If the sceneNode does not define a GeometryModel3D object, then null is returned.
(Defined by Extensions)
Public Extension MethodGetModel3D Returns a WPF's Model3D that was used to create the specified sceneNode. If the sceneNode does not define a Model3D object, then null is returned.
(Defined by Extensions)
Public Extension MethodGetModelVisual3D Returns a WPF's ModelVisual3D that was used to create the specified sceneNode or any parent SceneNode (in case searchParentSceneNodes is true). If a SceneNode that defines a ModelVisual3D is not found, then null is returned.
(Defined by Extensions)
Public Extension MethodGetVisual3D Returns a WPF's Visual3D that was used to create the specified sceneNode or any parent SceneNode (in case searchParentSceneNodes is true). If a SceneNode that defines a Visual3D is not found, then null is returned.
