hi.
is there anyway to set
transparency of object by part?
I mean, is it possible to
make some part of 3Dcube transparent? like a transparent-gif file, which shows
the object in its real form, and the background is transparent.
thanks in adv.

My company is interested to port same Performer applications to
Java+Java3D. We have very complex scenes,with 20 000 to 100 000
nodes.
Our tests showed that we couldn't even create 10 000 nodes each with
a
cube.
I presume the limitations was because of memory. However my

It is not needed. The superclass postSwap() is an empty method.

Look at the source code of

Boris,
No. Since Sun is releasing code that will allow saving scenes in a
"native" format (they have support for both file access and URL access)
we have decided not to pursue adding URL support to our loader. We
consider this loader a way to convert from 3DS to Java 3D. And even
though it is
Take a look at the Raster class in Java3D. You will make an "image" of
your text, then create a Raster. Place the Raster in a Shape3D and then
under the TransformGroup of the item you want to annotate (perhaps give
it some offset in the constructor).
Haven't done this myself in Java3D, but I've
You can definitely use transparency gifs and jpegs. Really your
texture would be a mask, totally white, but with an alpha channel to
show/hide different areas. Your texture mode would be MODULATE.

Do you want to do this to the image that is rendered on screen with the
canvas 3D or to the one that is saved to a file on disk?
For the former
I still cant figure this out.
All I want to do is take the drag distance from the mouse and convert it to
the corresponding 3d world distance. This, of course, would vary depending
on how far the object your moving is from the screen.

I load geometries with 1 300 000 nodes (600 000 triangles) and it works
fine.
I use a GeometryArray structure that i put in one Shape3D.
You should try to divide your cubes in 6 quad and put all the quads in a
QuadArray or in a IndexedQuadArray.
Then you will have only one shape3D.

The Lightwave loader in the J3D utils package supports some form of
animation. If you have the J3D demos loaded cd to the Lightwave directory
and run the demo there. You should see the animation of a red cone in a

John,
I respect your reasoning. But, your customers are crying for this feature.
It would add work to convert from 3DS to SUN's format. If a company
want to minimize number of models files, I'd assume that they'd want to standardize
on a more widely used format. Hope you'd think about this ag
Michael,
What you describe sounds a bit like 'relaxation method'?
I agree, I think this is an interesting area to experiment with Java3D.

Say I am using the NCSA portfolio to grab 2D jpeg images. When I check the
resolution of the images they are only 72 dpi. I need to grab them at say
800 dpi. Can I do anything like this.

The offscreen rendering feature added in 1.2 is the way to do this.
You may create a high resolution offscreen Canvas3D to render into.

Not true. The only limiting factor in the size of a scene is memory.

Here's a simple behaviour that should do the trick. Just define the updateX() methods
to whatever you'd like. I have a similar behaviour that received asynchronous updates,
then renders the most recent data for each object every frame.

{laugh} I should stop responding to these and just rewrite the code. I
don't really think writing it using a sequential loading scheme
(streams) would be very hard. 3DS format seems to be designed for
random access though.
