[JAVA3D] clipping planes

2002-12-18 Thread Appalaraju.Kvrapati
Hello forum, when I set front clipping distance to the view in parallel projection mode then the value of the front clip distance is from the viewer (or) from the eye-position (or) from the virtual position?. If I set the nominalviewplatform also then how it effects the front clip distance. Tha

Kelvin, This is very helpful. It at least starts to give me a feel for the overhead associated with, say, one pass to render x primitives, versus two passes to render x/2 primitives each. Thanks Rob Kelvin Chung wrote: Rob Nugent wrote: Kelvin, Thanks for the updates. A fantastically naive q

Hi : I want to make a animation by using a sequence of n textures to change the appearance of one plate.However, the appearance was only changed once until  the end of a sequence, in other words, the appearance was not changed from 1 to n-1 textures. I guessed it was no rendering when the a

It is so weird that if renderOnce can't be called from a behavior or from  any Canvas3D render callback, where I could call it ? The other 3D language , such as OpenGL or D3D, all can enforce render by some methods.   Greg   - Original Message - From: Greg Huang To: [EMA
