[JAVA3D] zoom using setScreenScale

2003-01-03 Thread Elisabeth Thorsen
Hi, I want to zoom using setScreenScale but the shape is fixed in size although I change the scale. The only thing that happens is that the shape is moving in and out of the clipping pane. I called the setScreenScalePolicy() method of the view with the View.SCALE_EXPLICIT policy before I set

Hi Elisabeth, put a TransformGroup over the scene in your scene graph and modify the scaling in the Transform3D of the transform group. this will scale all the objects in the scene uniformly resulting in the effect you'd like to have (i guess). cheers, Karsten > -Original Message- > Fro

I would like to use setScreenScale instead of using a scale transformgroup. Are there some attributes that should be changed in the View object to fix the zoom? Best regards Elisabeth Thorsen On Fri, 3 Jan 2003 10:58:07 +0100, Karsten Fries <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >Hi Elisabeth, > >put a Tran

As far I know, the greatest impact in performance in Java3D is the video card, not the JVM. You have near equal fps when you run your java3D apps using HotSpot JVM or the not optimized-interpreted-only Classic JVM. And sometimes the Classic runs faster (!), becouse it doesnot loose time in useless

I've been google'ing for a while now and having a little difficulty. What I'm trying to do is annotate 3D geometry. It works fine except that the alpha is not working properly. These are the steps that I follow, String sID = String.valueOf( ID ); BufferedImage bi = new BufferedImage

Hi Dave, this topic has been discussed on this list several times ago. You could have a look at some code from j3d.org (class RasterTextLabel). To answer your third question: Set a transparent background on your Graphics2D object and provide your Shape3D object with an appropriate appearance. ..

What you say is true, but what the benchmark tests is SIN, COS, an other math functions that are implemented in native code. Aparently, Sun has switched to a much slower math library (much stricter?) for 1.4. It would seem that any Java3D program that used these types of functions would suffer li
