Re: [JAVA3D] [cyclic scene graph]

[Fausto Mancini]

You are right. I've just thought about having all nodes at the same level in the j3d scenegraph and manage them with a cyclic graph logic. I was just wondering if it is possible, for instance, to decompose a cyclic graph into a set of acyclic graphs.

For a graph renderer, why not keep nodes and connections in seperate, flat lists (or better: BranchGroups)?   - J   ----- Original Message ----- From: Fausto Mancini To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, June 30, 2003 9:00 AM Subject: [JAVA3D] [cyclic scene graph] Hi all java3d interest group.   I'm a researcher from Milan (Italy). We are using java3d for scientific visualization... I've a question, and I hope this could be interesting for other members of the community... I know that java3d scenegraph is acyclic (no loops), but I need to represent a cyclic graph-structure. Is there any work-around to do that? Is it possible to "simulate" a cyclic graph using acyclic graph(s).   Thank you in advance for your attention,   Fausto Mancini
