Hi OSG lovers, I would like to discuss about the following code snippet, which appears in the Beginner's Guide for obtaining a node's position:
Code: osg::Vec3 posInWorld = node->getBound().center() * osg::computeLocalToWorld(node->getParentalNodePaths()[0]); In principle, this code is aimed to providing the position of a node in the world, regarding its local center and its node path. However, getParentalNodePaths()[0] returns the node path of the scene graph all the way down to the current node, including it. Therefore, the position in the world is incorrectly calculated, resulting in a multiplication of the node's center twice. One possible workaround for this would be to multiply by a (1.,1.,1.) vector, otherwise it's possible to strip the last node from the path. Should getParentalNodePaths return only the path up to the parent, or is this the desired behaviour? Thank you!
