Thanks. I did some more digging and noticed that, in the SDK, there is some
multiple inheritance going on for the PROGRESSMODEL class and that this is
not reflected in the js class.
I made an ugly hack and now I can use the progress indicator of the
geometrics layer.
The first thing I tried to do was to add "r3Progre();" in the constructor
of R3CLID_PROGRESSMODEL (real/code/r3progm.js). In other words, call the
constructor of R3CLID_PROGRE (oops/r3progre.js) in the subclass. This did
not work for some reason.
My second attempt was to simply copy the code from that constructor into
the constructor for R3CLID_PROGRESSMODEL (real/code/r3progm.js).
After adding this ugly hack I was able to use code like this:
var layer = GetJS ("CurrentProject.Geometrics");
var progressIndicator = layer.GetProgressIndicator();
progressIndicator.BEGIN (height);
for (y = 0; y < height; y++)
{
layer.SHOWMSG ("Reading SL height field RAW file. (" + y + "/" +
height + ")");
progressIndicator.PROGRESSTO (y);
...
}
progressIndicator.END();
And the progress indicator behaves as expected!
What would be the best way to correct the js file? Why did my first attempt
fail? It told me that BEGIN was not a function even though the constructor
did set that method up via the function call.
In my script, I had an additional problem in that my code did not release
the thread at any time before the task was completed, this meant that
Windows soon thought that the RS3D process was "Not resonding" and all UI
updates were frozen. I took a wild guess and called "layer.EXECIDLES();"
inside my loop and it now looks to be ok.
Now, however, my problem is that my code is too slow. It appears as if
creating faces of an SDS is really slow for some reason.
Any suggestion of how to quickly set up quad faces in a regular pattern?
// Create faces:
progressIndicator.BEGIN (height - 1);
var faceIndex = [0, 0, 0, 0];
for (y = 0; y < height - 1; y++)
{
layer.SHOWMSG ("Creating faces. (" + y + "/" + height + ")");
progressIndicator.PROGRESSTO (y);
layer.EXECIDLES();
for (x = 0; x < width - 1; x++)
{
faceIndex[0] = (y + 1) * width + (x + 0);
faceIndex[1] = (y + 1) * width + (x + 1);
faceIndex[2] = (y + 0) * width + (x + 1);
faceIndex[3] = (y + 0) * width + (x + 0);
sds.MAKEFACE (4, faceIndex);
}
}
progressIndicator.END();
The code above takes a long time to execute. In my example width and height
are 256.
