What type of primitive (mode) is in your DrawArrays? If it's GL_LINES then obviously you'll need to add 2 vertices to draw an additional line segment.
Other than that I don't know what the problem is.

I've tried leaving setDisplayList (true) and calling the method dirtyDisplayList() and not calling setVertexArray(vad). That doesn't work either. Nothing has worked so far except to call setVertexArray(vad); In my mind, the method, dirtyDisplayList() should 1) dirty my display list 2) rebuild it and therefore during the next draw sequence of the viewer, the line should be drawn. But that simply is not the case. My best guess is: Some flag w/in the Geometry/Drawable is not being set to "dirty" and some flag is not being set to "redaw" once the Geometry/Drawable is dirty. That's the nearest I can tell. Do you have any more suggestions? [Question] Thx.... code to "draw line" after initial setup ---------- osg::Vec3Array *vad = dynamic_cast<osg::Vec3Array *> (m_ogeomTrailGeometry->getVertexArray()); vad->push_back(osg::Vec3(x,y,z)); osg::DrawArrays *drArrys = dynamic_cast<osg::DrawArrays *> (m_ogeomTrailGeometry->getPrimitiveSet(0)); drArrys->setFirst(0); drArrys->setCount(vad->size()); m_ogeomTrailGeometry->dirtyDisplayList(); // doesn't work // m_ogeomTrailGeometry->setVertexArray(vad); // works when uncommented Paul Martz wrote: > If you use osgViewer::Viewer::run(), then you're rendering constantly > and don't need to do anything else to tell it to redraw. > > If you're using osgViewer::Viewer::frame(), then you need to call that > function. > > Paul Martz > Skew Matrix Software LLC > http://www.skew-matrix.com > +1 303 859 9466 > > -----Original Message----- > From: > [mailto:] On Behalf Of Allen > Saucier > Sent: Thursday, April 16, 2009 8:03 AM > To: > Subject: Re: Dinamic Line Drawing > > Wow, that easy? ha, ha... > > Paul, how does the "system" know when to redraw after I've added to > the vertices?
