Hello,
My solution to identifying a Picked transform was to store all of my
transformgroups in an array of my own class. Then I had my Pick behavior
call a method in the main to cycle through all the instances and compare the
picked transform to each instances transform. I did this with simply an if
statement.
An additional modification to the Pick Behavior code was to have it take a
pointer to my mains class. That way I could call a method within the main
from the PickBehavior.
Here's the modified PickRotateBehavior. sjmTransformGroup is just an
extension of TransformGroup. my_sjmLoad is the instance of the main that
was passed to the pick behavior:
//this is towards the end of the code:
// Make sure the selection exists and is movable.
if ((tg != null) &&
(tg.getCapability(TransformGroup.ALLOW_TRANSFORM_READ)) &&
(tg.getCapability(TransformGroup.ALLOW_TRANSFORM_WRITE))){
drag.setTransformGroup(tg);
drag.wakeup();
//THE NEXT LINE CALLS THE METHOD TO COMPARE TRANSFORMGROUPS
currentTG =
tg;my_sjmLoad.isObjectChanged((sjmTransformGroup)tg);
} else if (callback!=null)
callback.transformChanged( PickingCallback.NO_PICK, null );
}
//more code followed.
