HI J-S

In Creator/OpenFlight, the defaults for all the DOF min's and max's are all
0's and the step values are all 0's
and of course the scale current is set to 1,1,1

Creator has a DOF Viewer and when min, max are zero its ignores them it only
animates if you have a (Min or Max) and Step set to something other than
zero

Hi Gordon,

That's bitten me a few times too. Specifically when I create DOFs
programmatically instead of reading an FLT file.

> Is there a reason why its 0,0,0, and not 1,1,1 and should we change it

I think we could change it. Just need to beat the inertia of making such a
simple change and sending the whole modified file...

Ugggghhhh...

Ok! Did it!

Uh, there are lots more uninitialized variables there... What should
_minScale, _maxScale, _minHPR, _maxHPR, _minTranslate, _maxTranslate be set
to? Fine, _currentTranslate and _currentHPR can be left at (0,0,0), but are
there better defaults for the min and max? Does the OpenFlight spec give
some appropriate defaults? And now that _currentScale is set to (1,1,1),
does it bother that it's not between _minScale and _maxScale
- which are both still at the default-constructed value of (0,0,0)?

I knew I shouldn't have opened the file to do the modification... :-)
