public class Background extends Leaf
The Background leaf node defines a solid background color and a background image that are used to fill the window at the beginning of each new frame. The background image may be null. It optionally allows background geometry---which is pre-tessellated onto a unit sphere and is drawn at infinity---to be referenced. It also specifies an application region in which this background is active. A Background node is active when its application region intersects the ViewPlatform's activation volume. If multiple Background nodes are active, the Background node that is "closest" to the eye will be used. If no Background nodes are active, then the window is cleared to black.The set of nodes that can be added to a BranchGroup associated with a Background node is limited. All Group nodes except ViewSpecificGroup are legal in a background geometry branch graph. The only Leaf nodes that are legal are Shape3D (except OrientedShape3D), Morph, Light, and Fog. The presence of any other Leaf node, including OrientedShape3D, or of a ViewSpecificGroup node will cause an IllegalSceneGraphException to be thrown. Note that Link nodes are not allowed; a background geometry branch graph must not reference shared subgraphs. NodeComponent objects can be shared between background branches and ordinary (non-background) branches or among different background branches, however.
Light and Fog nodes in a background geometry branch graph do not affect nodes outside of the background geometry branch graph, and vice versa. Light and Fog nodes that appear in a background geometry branch graph must not be hierarchically scoped to any group node outside of that background geometry branch graph. Conversely, Light and Fog nodes that appear outside of a particular background geometry branch graph must not be hierarchically scoped to any group node in that background geometry branch graph. Any attempt to do so will be ignored.
The influencing bounds of any Light or Fog node in a background geometry branch graph is effectively infinite (meaning that all lights can affect all geometry objects nodes within the background geometry graph, and that an arbitrary fog is selected). An application wishing to limit the scope of a Light or Fog node must use hierarchical scoping.
Picking and collision is ignored for nodes inside a background geometry branch graph.

cloneNode
in classNode
- Parameters:
forceDuplicate
- when set totrue
, causes theduplicateOnCloneTree
flag to be ignored. Whenfalse

variable determines whether NodeComponent data is duplicated or copied.
Background geometry will not clone in this operation. It is the user's responsibility to callcloneTree
on that branchGroup.- See Also:

-
duplicateNode
public void duplicateNode(Node originalNode, boolean forceDuplicate)
Copies all node information fromoriginalNode
into the current node. This method is called from thecloneNode
method which is, in turn, called by thecloneTree
method.For any
NodeComponent
objects contained by the object being duplicated, eachNodeComponent
object'sduplicateOnCloneTree
value is used to determine whether theNodeComponent
should be duplicated in the new node or if just a reference to the current node should be placed in the new node. This flag can be overridden by setting theforceDuplicate
parameter in thecloneTree
method totrue
.
NOTE: Applications should not call this method directly. It should only be called by the cloneNode method.- Overrides:
duplicateNode
in classNode
- Parameters:
originalNode
- the original node to duplicate.forceDuplicate
- when set totrue
, causes theduplicateOnCloneTree
flag to be ignored. Whenfalse
, the value of each node'sduplicateOnCloneTree
variable determines whether NodeComponent data is duplicated or copied.- Throws:

Node.cloneTree()
,Node.cloneNode(boolean)
,NodeComponent.setDuplicateOnCloneTree(boolean)
-
updateNodeReferences
public void updateNodeReferences(NodeReferenceTable referenceTable)
Callback used to allow a node to check if any scene graph objects referenced by that node have been duplicated via a call tocloneTree
. This method is called bycloneTree
after all nodes in the sub-graph have been duplicated. The cloned Leaf node's method will be called and the Leaf node can then look up any object references by using thegetNewObjectReference
method found in theNodeReferenceTable
object. If a match is found, a reference to the corresponding object in the newly cloned sub-graph is returned. If no corresponding reference is found, either a DanglingReferenceException is thrown or a reference to the original object is returned depending on the value of theallowDanglingReferences
parameter passed in thecloneTree
call.NOTE: Applications should not call this method directly. It should only be called by the cloneTree method.
- Overrides:
updateNodeReferences
in classSceneGraphObject
- Parameters:
referenceTable
- a NodeReferenceTableObject that contains thegetNewObjectReference
method needed to search for new object instances- See Also:
NodeReferenceTable
,Node.cloneTree()
,DanglingReferenceException
