Re: [osg-users] Setting Home position in OSG Viewer
Hi John, well seems I already had it in SVN, I forgot it wasn't really called superfly (yet; I think I'll rename it): http://osgtoy.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/osgtoy/osgtoy/trunk/applications/superviewer/ I don't believe the camera initialization is there yet, I'll try to get that hacked in rsn. I'll be using lua for the config language. cheers -- mew > -Original Message- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:osg-users- > [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Image Modelling Limited > (IML) > Sent: Tuesday, February 26, 2008 11:47 AM > To: OpenSceneGraph Users > Subject: Re: [osg-users] Setting Home position in OSG Viewer > > MAGIC!

osgviewer is driven by the requirements Robert deems appropriate. fwiw I have been putting together a "super osgviewer/perfly" tentatively called superfly where I put all the bells and whistles driven by my requirements; your "home position" requirement meshes with my goals for superfly.

Re: [osg-users] Setting Home position in OSG Viewer
it's a shame, as it would make it a lot more usable for us non programmer types who need to look at models efficiently, and I don't just mean individual items, as it will do this for you, but larger more complex items where you need to position yourself uniquely. No-one does it as well as SGI did with Perfly...!

Hello John, > Can anyone help me out with this? Robert answered some time ago, the osgviewer application itself is not designed to do this, but it can be done programmatically. So if you're not willing to roll up your sleeves or get someone to do it for you, it looks like you're out of luck. http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.graphics.openscenegraph.user/23925/focus=24053 J-S -- __ Jean-Sebastien Guay[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.cm-labs.com/ http://whitestar02.webhop.org/ ___ osg-users mailing list osg-users@lists.openscenegraph.org http://lists.openscenegraph.org/listinfo.cgi/osg-users-openscenegraph.org

Re: [osg-users] Setting Home position in OSG Viewer
Hi John, osgviewer itself is no perfly, its a simple stripped down example, and doesn't try to match perfly in functionality. You can't control the home position via command line options. Programmatically you can set the home position via viewer.getCameraManipulator()->setHomePosition(...); Robert.

[osg-users] Setting Home position in OSG Viewer
Hi all, New to this list so please be kind I currently use the good old SGI Perfly viewer to look at individual models and utilise the option in perfly to set the initial start position and attitude using the -p and -e options. It is currently possible, or could it be possible, to do this in the OSGViewer. I have had a look and play with it but it wasn't immediatly obvious. Just for the record, I am not a programmer but a modeller, so going in and hacking the code is not really an option. I would really like to get to use the osg viwer as I would guess the OpenFlight loader support is at a newer version that the 15.7 I am fixed at in perfly...
