| Constructor, associates with a Node.
virtual | ~NodeAnimationTrack ()
| Destructor.
virtual TransformKeyFrame * | createNodeKeyFrame (Real timePos)
| Creates a new KeyFrame and adds it to this animation at the given time index.
virtual Node * | getAssociatedNode (void) const
| Returns a pointer to the associated Node object (if any).
virtual void | setAssociatedNode (Node *node)
| Sets the associated Node object which will be automatically affected by calls to 'apply'.
virtual void | applyToNode (Node *node, const TimeIndex &timeIndex, Real weight=1.0, Real scale=1.0f)

## Member Function Documentation

virtual void Ogre::AnimationTrack::_buildKeyFrameIndexMap | ( | const std::vector< Real > & | keyFrameTimes | ) | `[virtual, inherited]`

| Internal method to build keyframe time index map to translate global lower bound index to local lower bound index.

NodeAnimationTrack* Ogre::NodeAnimationTrack::_clone | ( | Animation * | newParent | ) | const

| Clone this track (internal use only).

virtual void Ogre::AnimationTrack::_collectKeyFrameTimes | ( | std::vector< Real > & | keyFrameTimes | ) | `[virtual, inherited]`

| Internal method to collect keyframe times, in unique, ordered format.

void Ogre::NodeAnimationTrack::_keyFrameDataChanged | ( | void |  | ) | const`[virtual]`

| Reimplemented from Ogre::AnimationTrack.

virtual void Ogre::NodeAnimationTrack::apply | ( | const TimeIndex & | timeIndex,
|  | Real | weight = `1.0`,
|  | Real | scale = `1.0f`
| ) | `[virtual]`

  | Parameters:
  | timeIndex | The time position in the animation to apply.
  | weight | The influence to give to this track, 1.0 for full influence, less to blend with other animations.
  | scale | The scale to apply to translations and scalings, useful for adapting an animation to a different size target.
Implements Ogre::AnimationTrack.

virtual void Ogre::NodeAnimationTrack::applyToNode | ( | Node * | node,
|  | const TimeIndex & | timeIndex,
|  | Real | weight = `1.0`,
|  | Real | scale = `1.0f`
| ) | `[virtual]`

| As the 'apply' method but applies to a specified Node instead of associated node.

virtual void Ogre::NodeAnimationTrack::buildInterpolationSplines | ( | void |  | ) | const`[protected, virtual]`

virtual KeyFrame* Ogre::AnimationTrack::createKeyFrame | ( | Real | timePos | ) | `[virtual, inherited]`

  | Creates a new KeyFrame and adds it to this animation at the given time index. Remarks: It is better to create KeyFrames in time order. Creating them out of order can result in expensive reordering processing. Note that a KeyFrame at time index 0.0 is always created for you, so you don't need to create this one, just access it using getKeyFrame(0); Note: this method will always create a keyframe even if the track already has a keyframe at the given time position. Parameters:
  | timePos | The time from which this KeyFrame will apply.

KeyFrame* Ogre::NodeAnimationTrack::createKeyFrameImpl | ( | Real | time | ) | `[protected, virtual]`

| Specialised keyframe creation. Implements Ogre::AnimationTrack.

virtual TransformKeyFrame* Ogre::NodeAnimationTrack::createNodeKeyFrame | ( | Real | timePos | ) | `[virtual]`

  | Creates a new KeyFrame and adds it to this animation at the given time index. Remarks: It is better to create KeyFrames in time order. Creating them out of order can result in expensive reordering processing. Note that a KeyFrame at time index 0.0 is always created for you, so you don't need to create this one, just access it using getKeyFrame(0); Parameters:
  | timePos | The time from which this KeyFrame will apply.

virtual Node* Ogre::NodeAnimationTrack::getAssociatedNode | ( | void |  | ) | const`[virtual]`

| Returns a pointer to the associated Node object (if any).

unsigned short Ogre::AnimationTrack::getHandle | ( | void |  | ) | const`[inherited]`

| Get the handle associated with this track. Definition at line 125 of file OgreAnimationTrack.h.

virtual void Ogre::NodeAnimationTrack::getInterpolatedKeyFrame | ( | const TimeIndex & | timeIndex,
|  | KeyFrame * | kf
| ) | const`[virtual]`

  | Remarks: The KeyFrame objects held by this class are transformation snapshots at discrete points in time. Normally however, you want to interpolate between these keyframes to produce smooth movement, and this method allows you to do this easily. In animation terminology this is called 'tweening'. Parameters:
  | timeIndex | The time (in relation to the whole animation sequence)
  | kf | Keyframe object to store results
Implements Ogre::AnimationTrack.

virtual KeyFrame* Ogre::AnimationTrack::getKeyFrame | ( | unsigned short | index | ) | const`[virtual, inherited]`

| Returns the KeyFrame at the specified index.

virtual Real Ogre::AnimationTrack::getKeyFramesAtTime | ( | const TimeIndex & | timeIndex,
|  | KeyFrame ** | keyFrame1,
|  | KeyFrame ** | keyFrame2,
|  | unsigned short * | firstKeyIndex = `0`
| ) | const`[virtual, inherited]`

  | Gets the 2 KeyFrame objects which are active at the time given, and the blend value between them. Remarks: At any point in time in an animation, there are either 1 or 2 keyframes which are 'active', 1 if the time index is exactly on a keyframe, 2 at all other times i.e. the keyframe before and the keyframe after. This method returns those keyframes given a time index, and also returns a parametric value indicating the value of 't' representing where the time index falls between them. E.g. if it returns 0, the time index is exactly on keyFrame1, if it returns 0.5 it is half way between keyFrame1 and keyFrame2 etc. Parameters:
  | timeIndex | The time index.
  | keyFrame1 | Pointer to a KeyFrame pointer which will receive the pointer to the keyframe just before or at this time index.
  | keyFrame2 | Pointer to a KeyFrame pointer which will receive the pointer to the keyframe just after this time index.
  | firstKeyIndex | Pointer to an unsigned short which, if supplied, will receive the index of the 'from' keyframe incase the caller needs it.
Returns: Parametric value indicating how far along the gap between the 2 keyframes the timeIndex value is, e.g. 0.0 for exactly at 1, 0.25 for a quarter etc. By definition the range of this value is: 0.0 <= returnValue < 1.0 .

virtual TransformKeyFrame* Ogre::NodeAnimationTrack::getNodeKeyFrame | ( | unsigned short | index | ) | const`[virtual]`

| Returns the KeyFrame at the specified index.

virtual unsigned short Ogre::AnimationTrack::getNumKeyFrames | ( | void |  | ) | const`[virtual, inherited]`
