What is the mechanism of the Mouse Manager?

[Wong]

Hello,

I have noticed the Mouse Manager that can make some topological changes. So which component and which part of the component does the Mouse Manager call to modify the topology?

Cheers,
Wong

Dear Wong,

I am no expert in Mouse events but here is what I can tell.
Mouse options that you can choose through the Mouse Manager in the runSofa GUI are described in the component: MouseOperations.cpp. This MouseOperation enumerates the different options.

Each Mouse option is actually a InteractionPerformer. For instance, the option allowing for cutting with the mouse wheel (in TriangleSurfaceCutting.scn) is the InciseAlongPathPerformer.

Check these components out, this will help.

Cheers,

Hugo
