Group Node


If you're not familiar to grouping nodes in VRML see the section Creating Hierarchical Node Structures for general information on grouping.

The group node lets you treat a set of nodes as a single entity.

The following fields are present:
  • children which contains all the nodes included in the group.
  • bboxCenter specifies the center of a box that encloses the nodes in the group. The value for this field is a 3D point.
  • bboxSize specifies where the size of a box that encloses the nodes in the group. By default this field has a value of -1 -1 -1, which implies that no box is defined. The values for this field must be greater than or equal to zero. If the children nodes do not fit inside the box defined the results are undefined.
  • The latter two fields are optional. They can be used by the browser for optimization purposes.

    Syntax:
    Group {
    children []
    bboxCenter 0 0 0
    bboxSize -1 -1 -1
    }


    The following hierarchical structure of a VRML file exemplifies scoping with the group node:
    Group g1 {
    Shape A
    Directional Light 1
    Group g2 {
    DirectionalLight 2
    Shape B
    }
    }
    The directional light in group 1 will lit both shapes A and B because a directional light lits all nodes within the same group and in descendent groups. However, the directional light in group 2 will only lit shape B. Shape A is placed outside the group where the light is defined and therefore it is not lit by the directional light in group 2.

    The following code exemplifies the syntax of the Group node:

    Example:
    #VRML V2.0 utf8

    Group {
    children [
    Shape {
    geometry Cylinder {
    height 5.0
    radius 0.5
    }
    }
    Shape {
    geometry Sphere {}
    }
    ]
    }
