generateStreakGeometry()

bool generateStreakGeometry	(	const QVector< Mesh::Vector3d > &	positionOverTime,
		const QVector< double > &	widthOverTime,
		const QVector< QColor > &	colorOverTime,
		Mesh::MeshModel &	mesh
	)

Generates the geometry for a particle streak using the supplied positions, radii and color which are all supplied as arrays. Each index in the supplied arrays represents a particular state at a timestep in the streak, with index 0 representing the initial state (t = 0), and the last index representing being the final state of the particle.

Parameters

positionOverTime	The position of the particle over time.
widthOverTime	The width of the streak over time.
colorOverTime	The color of the streak over time.
mesh	The mesh into which the resulting geometry is stored. New nodes and elements will be appended to the existing geometry - it is not necessary to clear a mesh prior to generating a streak.

Returns

true if the streak is successfully generated.
