ExplosionAPI

Interface ExplosionAPI

The ExplosionAPI provides a very basic explosion, which moves the parts away from a given point. The Explosion is completely circular. Overlapping parts are possible.

Example

// Get an instance of the ContextAPI
const myContext : ContextAPI = webvis.getContext( "example" )
const nodeID : number = myContext.add("someModelURL");

// Create a simple Explosion from the center of the node's BoxVolume.
myContext.createExplosion(nodeID);

// Perform the Explosion. All parts are moved away 0.3 times their distance to the center of the node.
myContext.performExplosion(0.3);

// Reset all transformations.
myContext.endExplosion();

Restrictions

Explosions cannot be performed on monolithic models.
