Re: [JAVA3D] Using swing inside a Java3D scene

[Lars van Gemerden]

How about painting a canvas3D on the side of a cube. Through the looking glass ... Great idea, gives me all kinds of visions, but I guess it would be a miracle of OO design if the original designers didn't use it as a design goal. Can't rule it out though.

 

Thanks,

Subject: [JAVA3D] Using swing inside a Java3D scene

I want to have a Swing user interface, painted on a face of a Java 3D Cube.

 

There are tutorials and samples which describe using Java 3D *inside* Swing, but I didn't find

anything on using Swing *inside* Java3D.

 

However it seems that both technologies use the underlying awt at the low level, so I think it

could be possible to do that, providing I can set Swing to draw on a given rectangle on the screen

(on of the Cube's face), possibly a "Graphics" object.

 

Do you think there is a way to do that ? or is it still SciFi ?

 

Have a nice day
