genclock (1)
NAME
|
genclock - generate a RADIANCE description of a clock |
SYNOPSIS
|
genclock [ -f face_mat ][ -c case_mat
][ -n name ] { HH:MM | hours
} |
DESCRIPTION
|
Genclock produces a RADIANCE scene description of an
analog clock showing the given hour. The hour may either be
given as HH:MM or decimal hours. |
|
The face of the clock will have a radius of 1.0 units, with
the surrounding case 1.1 (2.2 diameter). The origin is at
the center of the back, and the face looks in the positive
X-direction. The 12 o'clock direction corresponds to the
positive Z-axis. (The Y-axis direction is 3 o'clock.) The
xform(1) command may be used to resize and relocate
the clock as desired. |
|
Normally, genclock produces all of the materials
necessary for its own description, but options are provided
to specify alternate materials for the face and case. The
numbers on the face are in dark lettering, so the face
material must be relatively light for them to show up well.
By default, the clock is given the name "clock,"
but this may be changed with the -n
option. |
EXAMPLE
|
To produce a 12 inch diameter clock showing 10:35 and hang
it at 60 on a wall facing the Y-direction at
Y=10: |
|
genclock 10:35 | xform -s 6 -rz 90 -t 20 10 60 |
