| − | == Introduction ==
| |
| − |
| |
| − | The Arc is one of the basic primitives that can be created on the fly. The Arc Tag encompasses the various attributes that are associated with a Arc, such as position, size and orientation. In addition, the Arc can be textured with a predefined image from a specific location.

| |
| − | == Tag Attributes ==
| |
| − |
| |
| − | * name
| |
| − | ** '''Usage:''' <sphere name="mysphere" />.
| |
| − | ** The ''name'' attribute is optional. If omited, the name is not used and thus cannot be retrieved within JavaScript.
| |
| − | ** The Arc is given an Identifier so that It can be retrieved and modified within JavaScript.
| |
| − | ** The name is a only accepts a string of Alpha-numeric characters.
| |
| − | * position
| |
| − | ** '''Usage:''' <arc position="0.3, 5.5, 3.8" />.
| |
| − | ** The ''position'' attribute is optional. If omited, the position defaults to the Origin location at {0.0, 0.0, 0.0}.
| |
| − | ** The position attribute holds a set of three floating point numbers separated by commas that are associated with the distance away from the Origin Point on the X, Y, and Z axis.
| |
| − | * orientation
| |
| − | ** '''Usage:''' <arc orientation="1.0, 1.0, 1.0" />.
| |
| − | ** The ''orientation'' attribute defines the direction in which the Arc is facing. The direction is defined by a vector value.
| |
| − | ** The orientation value only accepts three numbers that are separated by commas.
| |
| − | * size
| |
| − | ** '''Usage:''' <arc size="0.4" />.
| |
| − | ** The ''size'' attribute defines the size of the Sphere on the screen.
| |
| − | * texture
| |
| − | ** '''Usage:''' <arc texture="mytexture" />
| |
| − | ** The ''texture'' attribute contains the name identifier of a texture that is defined inside the canvas tag.
| |
| − | ** If the texture does not exist or is not defined, a default color of white is applied to the Arc.
| |
| − | ** The attribute must be Alpha-numeric and must point to a defined texture tag.
