[osg-users] Updating the OSG reference manual (doxygen pages)

2008-06-27 Thread John Vidar Larring
Hi all, I have found that the bast way to look up in the reference manual is to google classes with their namespaces. E.g. if I need information on the class osgUtil::Optimizer then I just google that name and the first hit is almost always the OpenSceneGraph Class Reference for that class.

Hi Peter, ... is OpenSceneGraph working with 64bit? We are using OSG on 64 bits linux platform without any problems, so obviously OSG works with 64bit systems. However, I have no experience with OSG + Vista combination what so ever, and I am not planning to gain any either... hehe;) Best

Hi Åsa, One trick that I have found useful is to use the 'osgconv' program to convert other formats into .osg files so that I can look at the resulting SceneGraph in an editor. Try: osgconv arena.flt arena.osg ... and check where the texture have been attached in your graph. Best regards,

Hi, When creating globes with VPB one can use the option -v (vertical multiplier) to set permanent vertical exaggeration for the generated model. However, in our software solution the user must be able to set vertical exaggeration from the GUI (i.e. dynamically alter vertical exaggeration).
