Constructor Detail

Axis

public Axis()

Create a default axis object with each item length 5 from the origin

Axis

public Axis(float length)

Create an axis object with the given axis length from the origin.

Parameters:

length - The length to use. Must be positive

Axis

public Axis(float length,
            float transparency)

Create an axis object with the given axis length from the origin. The transparency of the axis can be controlled through the use of the second parameter. It follows the standard alpha values. A value of 0 is not visible, a value of 1 is completely visible.

Parameters:

length - The length to use. Must be positive

transparency - The amount of alpha channel in the axis
