Re: [osg-users] Writing single plugin to handle multiple extensions

[Budong Smith]

Writing single plugin to handle multiple extensions is not really as easy as 
that but i guess that is a great reference.

Re: [osg-users] OSG viewer blocks Qt window

[Philip Lowman]

Can you post a small example of the problem?  I've been using Qt with OSG
for about a month now and haven't run into anything like this.

Have you considered using something like a QTimer to send your keep-alive
messages instead?

Re: [osg-users] Preventing scale from being transmitted to children

Hi,

I'm currently working with PositionAttitudeTransform controlled objects in my

could apply the inverse of the scale factor to each children, but that doesn't

I want my children to receive the position and orientation modifications, alas

What you're seeing is part of the nature of a scene graph.  Each child 
inherits the coordinate system of its parent.


A simple solution is to create a MatrixTransform node, set a scale on it 
(use Matrix::makeScale), and attach the object model to that 
transform.   Then, you can attach the MatrixTransform to the 
PositionAttitudeTransform.


A possible shortcut for this could also be to use the "scale" 
pseudoloader.  For example, if you are currently loading a model called 
"model.obj", you can instead load "model.obj.(3.0).scale", and it will 
automatically insert a scale transform above the loaded object.

Pretty vague question, but you'd probably use a NodeVisitor for that.

Re: [osg-users] OSG Threading

[Robert Osfield]

Hi Prasad,

You can do the multi-threading in any way you, you can even thread the main
loop out into a separate thread, or you can even just use the OSG's database
pager if to create procedural scene graph elements.  You have lots of
choice.  You don't really say enough about your apps needs to say what
approach is best for you.

It's not single-threaded, but you're calling the run() method of viewer, 
which doesn't return until you call viewer.setDone(true) in a callback 
or something.


If you change it to:

while (!viewer.done())
{
  viewer.frame()

  
}

You should get what you need.

Re: [osg-users] shape, shape drawable and geode modification

[Robert Osfield]

Hi Miguel,

By default the OSG creates display lists for drawables, including the
ShapeDrawable, and this won't automatically update unless you tell the
drawable it needs to recompile the display list which you can do via
drawable->dirtyDisplayList().  If you plan to modify the shape regularily
then it's best to just disable display lists outright via
drawable->setUseDisplayList(false) as the compilation is relatively
expensive.

Robert.

[osg-users] shape, shape drawable and geode modification

[Miguel Lokida]

Hi,

Here 's my problem. I have a cylinder shape that I have added to my scenegraph. 
here a sample code:

I have declared instances in the headers. And I can display the cylinder.

Code:

rp_cylinder = new osg::Cylinder();

rp_cylinder->setHeight(1.0f);
rp_cylinder->setRadius(100.0f);
rp_cylinder->setRotation(osg::Quat( (M_PI / 2.0f),osg::Vec3(0.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f)) 
);

rp_CylinderDrawable = new osg::ShapeDrawable(rp_cylinder.get());

rp_cylinderGeode = new osg::Geode();

rp_cylinderGeode->addDrawable(rp_CylinderDrawableDebFen.get());

rp_position->addChild(rp_cylinderGeode.get());





But, I would like to modify the radius and height of the cylinder. So, I do:


Code:
osg::Cylinder * cylinder = static_cast(rp_cylinderGeode->getDrawable(0)->getShape());
cylinder->setHeight(2.0f);




But the problem is that nothing happen. No modification of the geometry.
The address of the pointer is always the same so it is the same object.

What 's wrong with my implementation ?


Thank you![/code]

Re: [osg-users] FBO OpenGL Error with new nVidia Driver

[Robert Osfield]

Hi Sebastien,

There is very little others can do to help without seeing the actual problem
in front of them, it has far too open ended an issue - and OpenGL error
could mean a huge range of things that could be wrong.  You have your
application and hardware that reproduces the problem, no-one else has so you
are based placed to investigate the cause.  Start by simplifying your what
you app does, to isolate it to exactly what is causing the error. also try
other hardware/drivers.  Beyond giving you advice on how to investigate this
stuff there is nothing else others can do.

Robert.

[osg-users] OSG viewer blocks Qt window

[Zoe Catz]

Hi,

I've written a Qt application. It's used to configure some settings which 
should be considered it my visualisation later on. In addition, this window 
update handles sending keep-alive messages via UDP in the background. 

The visualisation itselft should be rendered in an own window by OSG. The 
problem is, as soon as I add the osg window the qt window incl. the UDP 
packages are not updated/sent anymore. 

So my question is, how can I force both (qt and osg) windows to update?

Thank you in advance!

Cheers,
grisu

bs = bounding sphere

You have the range (cam pos - bs center) and the bs radius, so atan 
would give half the fov needed to fit the bs. You'll have to adjust 
horiz/vert fov depending on your window aspect.

Perhaps the osgShadow::MinimalShadowMap class does this kind of frustum calculation to minimize the fov of the camera that collects the shadowmap? 


Thank you!

[osg-users] Problems with camera default views

[Felipe Lemus]

Hi,

I am new with OSG. I am trying to do an scene with a plane flying over a 
terrain. I want to use two cameras, one with the plane and looking at the floor 
and with freedom to rotate it. And another camera placed well above the plane 
looking to it. I use NodetrackerManipulator to do that, but the default view is 
not what I want. 

Here is the code to define the NodetrackerManipulator of the camera placed 
above the plane:

osg::PositionAttitudeTransform * Superiorcamera =
  new osg::PositionAttitudeTransform();
   Superiorcamera->setPosition( osg::Vec3(0.0,0.0,500.0) );
   Superiorcamera->setAttitude(
  osg::Quat( osg::DegreesToRadians(-90.0), osg::Vec3(1,0,0) ));
   
   ownTank.get()->addChild(Superiorcamera);
   osgGA::NodeTrackerManipulator* tm2 = new osgGA::NodeTrackerManipulator;
tm2->setTrackerMode( osgGA::NodeTrackerManipulator::NODE_CENTER);
tm2->setRotationMode( osgGA::NodeTrackerManipulator::ELEVATION_AZIM);
tm2->setTrackNode(Superiorcamera);


Then I have changed createview to take a NodetrackerManipultor instead of 
TrackballManipulator.

I am looking for solutions in the forum but I have not find what I need. I 
think that sethomeposition() is not valid in this case because my cameras are 
on the move and i have two views in the same viewer.

Thanks for your help and excuse my English.
... 

Thank you!

Cheers,
Felipe

Re: [osg-users] Focus object/scene (clamping frustum)

[J.P. Delport]

Hi,

I don't think the frustum is calculated per se. Have a look at how 
NodeTrackerManipulator.cpp (and others) uses setHomePosition(). I think 
a certain camera FOV is assumed and then distance from the object is 
adjusted so that the bounding sphere fits into the FOV.

yes it'll just inherit the standard OSG's functional, but there is a

Could it be that the RTT camera is taking it's picture from a position that
does require the high levels of detail you are perhaps looking for.  With
RTT's camera's it's possible to choose the current view's eye point rather
(termed the View point) than local Camera's eye point.  osgShadow uses
this.  I don't recall what osgSim::OverlayNode does in this context, go have
a look at the source.

Re: [osg-users] OSG MultiThreading

[Robert Osfield]

Hi Prasad,

You question is way too open ended to give an answer.  The osgViewer library
implements multi-threading of cameras and graphics context out of the box,
you don't need to do anything.  But as to whether this is what you after I
have absolutely no clue.

Tell us what you mean by multi-threading, i.e. what do you want to thread
and for what reason.

Robert.

[osg-users] Overlay nodes and Lod's

[Vaibhav Bansal]

Hello,

Does overlay subgraph support LOD's?
I tried to assign a paged lod as overlaysubgraph for overlay node, but it
does not seem to page the lod's.
Is there any special way to use lod's with overlay?

Thanks and Regards
Vaibhav Bansal

Re: [osg-users] How to get the camera in UpdateCallback Node?

[Robert Osfield]

Hi Geo,

The camera callback will be called on each frame.  Or if you don't want to
use a callback you can simply roll your own frame loop and do the setting
there.

osg::Matrix matrix = viewer.getCamera()->getViewMatrix();

viewer.getCamera()->setViewMatrix(matrix);

The OSG uses the form x' = x * M; while OpenGL now uses x' = M * x; so you
just flip the ordering.

Can any one give me complete example how can i add a OSGScene inside a Form
