I'm not the author of this patch, but I've written something similar. (My patch isn't quite finished yet as I need to fix it so that I can interrupt the animation and change directions midway through the animation.) The reason I need the reverse animation functionality is because I have an animated hatch that closes (baked into an FBX file). I wanted to be able to just play the animation in reverse to open the hatch. The reverse animation feature alleviates the need for two separate animations (and the code to handle them). I would be okay with setting a direction parameter or negative speed value instead of the PlayMode enum if that's the route you preferred. (My own patch adds reverse versions of all the existing play modes but ping-pong.) —Kevin Godby _______________________________________________ osg-submissions mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openscenegraph.org/listinfo.cgi/osg-submissions-openscenegraph.org
