Hi,
I have developed an OSG-based application that renders a scene to a
window. That works fine.
But my client has required the scene printed to paper (A3). The solution
I've tried is using the WindowCaptureCallback (from an OSG example in
the wiki) to read the pixels from the graphics card and, resizing the
image to fit an A3 paper, copy it to the printer device context (windows
app). This works too, but with issues:
- The A3 printer device context has much more dots (horizontal res
bigger than 4000) that pixels I can retrieve from my scene window
(800x600 aprox, it's resizable).
- The resampling makes the image heavily "pixelized": The text in the
scene is hardly readable, because of the augmentation. The frustrum
projection and raster to pixels that in screen is hardly noticed, when
scaled upwards lead to a very ugly result.
I was wondering if it's possible to render the same scene to two frame
buffers:
1) The screen framebuffer, as I have it now.
2) A "on-memory" framebuffer, much bigger (ideally the same exact
resolution that I have in the printer context to avoid resizing artifacts).
So my questions are:
- Is this possible?
- With a single osgViewer or two viewers, one for each?
- Are there limitations in the resolutions available (power of two or
whatever) or in the maximum resolution achievable?
- Is there any OSG example that uses this "memory-only frame buffer"? Or
an OSG class name where I can start reading code to learn how to use it?
Thanks in advance
Ignacio Garcia
