Hello all, I have a small problem with the front and back clip distance. I've read all the facts about the both values and it works fine. It's just that the viewer that I'm working on can view different models of different size at the same time. This means that I have normal size data and very small data.
So in order to view them correctly when I focus on one model in particular I change the front and back clip distance so that the model is in between the 2 values ( front and back ). But it seams that I can only set this value once. I have some default values for the front and back clip distance that I set when I instanciate the "View". Those values are average values, 0.1 and 8 and it works very well with model that have sizes that fit those values. But if I have a very small model, then the 0.1 front clip is to small. I changed it to 0.0001 and set the back clip accordignly on the fly and I can't see the model. But on the other hand, if I hard code the front and back clip distance then I see the very small model. Thank you all for helping me. I've been struggeling with this problem for to long know. One idea that came up to me, was to scale the model to the proper dimension so that I could see it in the ranges that I set when I instanciate the "View" object. Vince.
