Are you using osgEarth?

Thanks, Trajce.  That looks like it will do what I need.  Since this was my 
first post to the forums, apparently it wouldn't show up until an admin 
approved it and during that time I was able to modify the 
GeoPositionNodeAutoScaler class from osgEarth to do what I need it to.  Looking 
at osg::AutoTransform, it looks like it's doing more or less the same thing, 
but is more involved.  My solution ended up being a little more specialized for 
my use case.

Hi David,

have a look at osg::AutoTransform

[osg-users] Scale object based on camera distance

[David Mitchell]

I have certain nodes/objects in my scene that I always want to be the same size 
regardless of their distance from the camera and I'm trying to figure out the 
best way to go about doing this.  My first thought is to create a custom 
NodeCallback to add to the node as a cull callback and then get the distance 
from the node to the camera and apply the appropriate scale to the node (as a 
MatrixTransform).  Is that a reasonable approach?

The other thing I'm struggling with is how to calculate the proper scale.  What 
I'd like is for the object's geometry to translate to pixel units, meaning if 
the vertices range from (-10, -10, -10) to (10, 10, 10), then it would take up 
roughly 20x20 pixels on the screen when scaled.  Rather than fumbling around 
with different matrices and transforms trying to get this to work, I thought 
I'd try asking first.
