Module thumbnail 

Part thumbnails: a small CPU rasterizer over the RenderScene’s display meshes, the one picture producer that runs the same on native, in the browser and in the headless bake worker (which has no GPU device at all).

The picture is the ViewCube’s ISO view (from +X+Y+Z, +Y up), orthographic, fit to what is drawn, square, on a transparent background: Lambert shading under a fixed light, a depth buffer, each body’s viewport colour (a face’s colour, else its solid’s, else the name-hashed colour), and the display edges drawn over it. It is supersampled SUPERSAMPLE× per axis and averaged down, so silhouettes are anti-aliased.

capture copies what the picture needs out of the scene (cheap, on the caller’s thread); render_png does the rest and is Send-safe, so a native host can run it on a thread of its own. The PNG carries no text or time chunks: the same scene gives the same bytes.

Modules

line_art

The Line art step picture: a flat technical illustration, as assembly instructions draw a step (the instructions documents’ default style).

Structs

Body

One body’s triangles, ready to draw.

Capture

What render_png draws: an owned copy of the visible scene.

Constants

RENDERER

The renderer’s version, stored beside each thumbnail on the server. Bump it whenever the picture for the same document would change, so a server can tell a thumbnail made by an older renderer.

SIZE

The default thumbnail edge, in pixels.

Functions

body_of

One display’s body as capture copies it, whatever its visibility: hidden faces left out, in the viewport’s colours. None when no face is left to draw.

capture

Copy the visible bodies out of scene: every visible solid and committed sketch sheet, hidden faces left out, in the viewport’s colours.

embedded_png

Portable preview carried by native CAD JSON. The image has no external URL.

empty_embedded

Empty documents and edits still rebuilding have an honest empty preview.

render_png

Render capture as a size×size RGBA PNG. None when nothing is drawn (an empty document gets no thumbnail; consumers show their placeholder).

render_png_from

render_png from another direction: basis (right, up, toward the eye) in place of the ISO view’s, fit and lit the same way.

render_rgba

render_png’s pixels, before encoding: size² RGBA, row-major.

render_rgba_from

render_png_from’s pixels, before encoding.

Type Aliases

Basis

A view’s orthonormal basis: right, up, and the direction from the model toward the eye.
