[JAVA3D] More on safely updating a scenegraph

All, According to previous posts on this list, it seems we can safely update a live scenegraph from a behavior, from the Canvas3D listeners, or from the Swing event thread using the invokeLater( ) method (I hope that's an accurate summary). But how do you go about safely updating (adding Nodes t

Re: [JAVA3D] ImageComponent2D question.

Matthew: Not all matching formats are retained as "by-ref" in the implementation. Here are the combinations for which a copy will NOT be made. - Texture by reference and Y-up Using texture by reference and Y-up format may reduce the memory needed to store a texture ob

[JAVA3D] picking only within behavior?

Hi, I am just realizing that I am using a Behavior and don't really know why :-/ I am buidling something like a general picking utility. You register as a listener (it can only have one) and give it all shapes you are interested in as a parameter. Additionally you specifiy in which events and mo

Re: [JAVA3D] ImageComponent2D question.

Scan the archives for the words "video texture" or something similar. There is a link posted by someone in the last 2 months in this archive that points to some demo java3d code by the sun team that does this. Dave Yazel > -- > From: Matthew Huber[SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Reply

[JAVA3D] ImageComponent2D question.

Hello, I'm setting a Background node with a BufferedImage, but I need to modify that image on the fly depending on user input. Since the scene graph is live, every time I need to update the image I am creating a new ImageComponent2D (if there's a way around it I haven't tried I would love to

[JAVA3D] A simple question...

Hi, This may sound a little simple, but remember I’m only learning! I am trying to make a server/client app with Java3D. I want the server to control all my behaviours, and the client to simply reproduce the scene from the server. However, the client will be able to interact with the scene (e.

Re: [JAVA3D] Welcome to Visit 'Java3D Games Testing Website'

I must say that, although very imcomplete, this is probably the best display of Java3D games on the web. Nice job, I hope you keep at it and get those wrapped up and finished. On another note, is anyone out there thinking of hosting this kind of stuff?  We have students pumping out at least one

Re: [JAVA3D] Particles System and GeometryArrays

Each particle is parallel but not necessarily coplanar. Specifically, they all turn to face the view, but can be at any location. This is somewhat different than the billboard behavior. Billboarding will turn to face the ViewPoint, which means that for each billlboard they must comute there own

[JAVA3D] Release and support query.

Hello Java3D team, My company is interested in releasing our product(s) on as many platforms as possible simultaneously. At this point in time, the availability of Java3D is the constraining factor. A version of Java3D exists on Linux and on Windows. I have several questions: o Can we expect
