- WorldWind.CLAMP_TO_GROUND
Type:
- String

This shape's normal (non-highlight) attributes.
Type:
- Inherited From:
- Source:
displayName :String
The display name of the renderable.
Type:
- String
- Inherited From:
- Default Value:
- "Renderable"
- Source:
enabled :Boolean
Indicates whether to display this renderable.
Type:
- Boolean
- Inherited From:
- Default Value:
- true
- Source:
expirationInterval :Number
Indicates how long to use terrain-specific shape data before regenerating it, in milliseconds. A value
of zero specifies that shape data should be regenerated every frame. While this causes the shape to
adapt more frequently to the terrain, it decreases performance.
Type:
- Number
- Inherited From:
- Default Value:
- 2000 (milliseconds)
- Source:
highlightAttributes :ShapeAttributes
This shape's highlight attributes. If null or undefined and this shape's highlight flag is true, this
shape's normal attributes are used. If they in turn are null or undefined, this shape is not drawn.
Type:
- Inherited From:
- Default Value:
- null
- Source:
highlighted :Boolean
Indicates whether this shape uses its normal attributes or its highlight attributes when displayed.
If true, the highlight attributes are used, otherwise the normal attributes are used. The normal
attributes are also used if no highlight attributes have been specified.
Type:
- Boolean
- Inherited From:
- Default Value:
- false
- Source:
pickDelegate :Object
Indicates the object to return as the userObject of this shape when picked. If null,
then this shape is returned as the userObject.
Type:
- Object
- Inherited From:
- Default Value:
- null
- Source:
- See:
pickTransparentImagePixels :Boolean
Indicates whether this mesh is pickable when the pick point intersects transparent pixels of the
image applied to this mesh. If no image is applied to this mesh, this property is ignored. If this
property is true and an image with fully transparent pixels is applied to the mesh, the mesh is
pickable at those transparent pixels, otherwise this mesh is not pickable at those transparent pixels.
Type:
- Boolean
- Default Value:
- true
- Source:
timeRange :Array.<Date>
An array with two elements:
start time and end time of the visible range.
Type:
- Array.<Date>
- Inherited From:

userProperties :Object
An application defined object associated with this renderable. A typical use case is to associate
application defined data with a picked renderable.
Type:
- Object
- Inherited From:
- Default Value:
- An empty object
- Source:
useSurfaceShapeFor2D :Boolean
Indicates whether to use a surface shape to represent this shape when drawn on a 2D globe.
Type:
- Boolean
- Inherited From:
- Default Value:
- false

currentData |
Object | This shape's current data. |
- Source:
(protected) computeMeshPoints(dc, currentData) → {Float32Array}
Computes this mesh's Cartesian points. Called by this abstract class during rendering to compute
Cartesian points from geographic positions. This method must be overridden by subclasses. An
exception is thrown if it is not.
This method must also assign currentData.eyeDistance to be the minimum distance from this mesh to the
current eye point.

Returns:
The shape data object.

- Overrides:
- Source:
(protected) isShapeDataCurrent(dc, shapeData) → {Boolean}
Indicates whether a specified shape data object is current. Subclasses may override this method to add

(protected) isWithinProjectionLimits(dc) → {Boolean}
Indicates whether this shape is within the current globe's projection limits. Subclasses may implement
this method to perform the test. The default implementation returns true. Applications do not call this
method.
Parameters:
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
dc |
DrawContext | The current draw context. |
- Inherited From:
- Source:
Returns:
true if this shape is is within or intersects the current globe's projection limits,
otherwise false.
- Type
- Boolean
render(dc)
Render this renderable. Some shapes actually draw themselves during this call, others only add themselves
to the draw context's ordered rendering list for subsequent drawing when their renderOrdered method is called.
This method is intended to be called by layers such as RenderableLayer and not by applications.
Parameters:
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
dc |
DrawContext | The current draw context. |
- Inherited From:
- Source:
renderOrdered(dc)
Draws this shape during ordered rendering. Implements the OrderedRenderable interface.
This method is called by the WorldWindow and is not intended to be called by applications.

| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
dc |
DrawContext | The current draw context. |
