DESCRIPTION
     This node creates texture coordinates for points on an object's surface
     by projecting them onto a plane. The directionS and directionT fields
     define the plane. The S coordinate is computed as the distance from the
     object-space origin along the vector specified in the directionS field.
     The T coordinate is computed similarly, using the directionT field.

     The length of the direction vector is also taken into account. For
     example, assume directionS is (0.5, 0, 0) and directionT is (0, 1, 0).
     The square defined by the (x, y, z) vertices:

          (-1, -1, 0) (1, -1, 0) (1, 1, 0) (-1, 1, 0)

     will be assigned the (s, t) texture coordinates:

          (-2, -1) (2, -1) (2, 1) (-2, 1)



FIELDS
     SoSFVec3f           directionS
     SoSFVec3f           directionT
          Directions of projection for S and T coordinates.


METHODS
                         SoTextureCoordinatePlane()
          Creates a texture function node with default settings.

     static SoType       getClassTypeId()
          Returns type identifier for this class.


ACTION BEHAVIOR
     SoGLRenderAction, SoCallbackAction, SoRayPickAction
          Sets the current texture function in the state.


FILE FORMAT/DEFAULTS

          directionS  1 0 0
          directionT  0 1 0
