Hi Robert, thanks for the reply! Well, its kindof what i want. As of now im working with picking objects in the scenegraph. But eventually i want to be able to select objects inside of an boundingbox. Eg. user draws a box with the mouse, and selects all the objects inside it.
I found a example of this at: http://www.openscenegraph.org/osgwiki/pmwiki.php/Tasks/OsgIntersect This is pretty much what i want to be done, find nodes/drawables inside a boundingbox. But, from what i can understand this code is nolonger developed or maintained. And i didn't manage to get the examples running. If i understand correctly the Polytope suggestion you gave me would only give me objects that are intersected. Wich means i wouldn't get objects inside it(?). Since there are functions like: /** Return true if this bounding box intersects the specified bounding box. */ bool intersects(const BoundingBox& bb) const /** Returns true if this bounding box contains the specified coordinate. */ inline bool contains(const Vec3& v) const On the boundingbox it shouldn't be to hard to check if any objects boundingbox is inside the "selected" boundingbox. I figured that there was a way to do this in a similar way as the Linesegment & intersectVisitor does. MVH David Johansson On 6/26/06, Robert Osfield <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Hi David, Not quite sure what you are after, is that you want to use a polytope to intersect with a scene, rather than a line segmenet as IntersectVisitor does? There is a spealized code in src/osgSim/SphereSegmenet.cpp does create a osg::Polytope and traversing throught the scene picking out what elements intersect it. Perhaps this would be useful guide for you. BTW, a Polytope can be used to represent a bounding box, by building it from 6 half space planes. Robert.
