The Z-up is popular in the vis-sim industry as it feels more natural to assume X-east, Y-north, Z-up. But it's not hard-coded or anything, just the default. You can change it without problems by specifying an up vector of osg::Vec3(0,1,0).

Re: [osg-users] GLSL and OSG
Just a question of curiosity. I can guess Z and Y defaults haven't been change just for fun neither the vector column/row. But I wonder which are these reasons. Does someone know about it?

Hi Maxime, On 26/6/09 2:44 PM, Maxime BOUCHER wrote: 2) More problematic. Y and Z axis are swapped between OSG and OpenGL. Thus do I have to do a sort of swap between dimensions (so to say) ? For example, I have a camera with view and projection, in osg conventions, and I use the viewmatrix in the shader. That's why I wonder. They aren't swapped. OSG is using the same right-handed coordinate system as OpenGL, the only difference being that OSG by default uses Z-up whereas OpenGL uses Y-up by default. There's no need to swap anything, it's just a matter of camera positioning/world layout.
