short oit. This rendering technique is also known as depth peeling.
Attached is the example that makes depth peeling work with the fixed function
pipeline. Ok, this is 'old fashioned' but required for our use case that
still has to work on older UNIX OpenGL implementations as well as together
with a whole existing application making use of the fixed function pipeline.
I can imagine to add support for shaders when we have that shader composition
framework where we can add a second depth test in a generic way.
This does *not* implement the dual depth peeling described in a paper from the
ETH Zurich.
This example could serve as a test case for the feature that you can on the
fly remove pre render cameras that you made work a few time ago.
It is also a test case for the new TraversalOrderBin that is used to composite
the depth layers in the correct blend order.
This example also stresses your new texture object cache since you can change
some parameters for the oit implementation at runtime.
You can just load any model with osgoit and see how it works.
Use the usual help key to see what you can change.
There is already an osgdepthpeeling example that I could not really make sense
of up to now. So I just made something new without touching what I do not
understand."

to get QWidgetImage to a point where it can fill a need we have: to be
able to use Qt to make HUDs and to display widgets over / inside an OSG
scene.
---------------
Current results
---------------
I've attached what I have at this point. The modified QWidgetImage +
QGraphicsViewAdapter classes can be rendered fullscreen (i.e. the Qt
QGraphicsView's size follows the size of the OSG window) or on a quad in
the scene as before. It will let events go through to OSG if no widget
is under the mouse when they happen (useful when used as a HUD with
transparent parts - a click-focus scheme could be added later too). It
also supercedes Martin Scheffler's submission because it adds a
getter/setter for the QGraphicsViewAdapter's background color (and the
user can set their widget to be transparent using
widget->setAttribute(Qt::WA_TranslucentBackground) themselves).
The included osgQtBrowser example has been modified to serve as a test
bed for these changes. It has lots more command line arguments than
before, some of which can be removed eventually (once things are
tested). Note that it may be interesting to change its name or split it
into two examples. Though if things go well, the specific QWebViewImage
class can be removed completely and we can consolidate to using
QWidgetImage everywhere, and then a single example to demonstrate it
would make more sense, albeit not named osgQtBrowser... You can try this
path by using the --useWidgetImage --useBrowser command line arguments -
this results in an equivalent setup to QWebViewImage, but using
QWidgetImage, and doesn't work completely yet for some unknown reason,
see below.
----------------
Remaining issues
----------------
There are a few issues left to fix, and for these I request the
community's assistance. They are not blockers for me, and with my
limited Qt experience I don't feel like I'm getting any closer to fixing
them, so if someone else could pitch in and see what they can find, it
would be appreciated. It would be really nice to get them fixed, that
way we'd really have a first-class integration of Qt widgets in an OSG
scene. The issues are noted in the osgQtBrowser.cpp source file, but
here they are too:
-------------------------------------------------------------------
QWidgetImage still has some issues, some examples are:
1. Editing in the QTextEdit doesn't work. Also when started with
--useBrowser, editing in the search field on YouTube doesn't
work. But that same search field when using QWebViewImage
works... And editing in the text field in the pop-up getInteger
dialog works too. All these cases use QGraphicsViewAdapter
under the hood, so why do some work and others don't?
a) osgQtBrowser --useWidgetImage [--fullscreen] (optional)
b) Try to click in the QTextEdit and type, or to select text
and drag-and-drop it somewhere else in the QTextEdit. These
don't work.
c) osgQtBrowser --useWidgetImage --sanityCheck
d) Try the operations in b), they all work.
e) osgQtBrowser --useWidgetImage --useBrowser [--fullscreen]
f) Try to click in the search field and type, it doesn't work.
g) osgQtBrowser
h) Try the operation in f), it works.
2. Operations on floating windows (--numFloatingWindows 1 or more).
Moving by dragging the titlebar, clicking the close button,
resizing them, none of these work. I wonder if it's because the
OS manages those functions (they're functions of the window
decorations) so we need to do something special for that? But
in --sanityCheck mode they work.
a) osgQtBrowser --useWidgetImage --numFloatingWindows 1
[--fullscreen]
b) Try to drag the floating window, click the close button, or
drag its sides to resize it. None of these work.
c) osgQtBrowser --useWidgetImage --numFloatingWindows 1
--sanityCheck
d) Try the operations in b), all they work.
e) osgQtBrowser --useWidgetImage [--fullscreen]
f) Click the button so that the getInteger() dialog is
displayed, then try to move that dialog or close it with the
close button, these don't work.
g) osgQtBrowser --useWidgetImage --sanityCheck
h) Try the operation in f), it works.
3. (Minor) The QGraphicsView's scrollbars don't appear when
using QWidgetImage or QWebViewImage. QGraphicsView is a
QAbstractScrollArea and it should display scrollbars as soon as
the scene is too large to fit the view.
a) osgQtBrowser --useWidgetImage --fullscreen
b) Resize the OSG window so it's smaller than the QTextEdit.
Scrollbars should appear but don't.
c) osgQtBrowser --useWidgetImage --sanityCheck
d) Try the operation in b), scrollbars appear. Even if you have
floating windows (by clicking the button or by adding
--numFloatingWindows 1) and move them outside the view,
scrollbars appear too. You can't test that case in OSG for
now because of problem 2 above, but that's pretty cool.
4. (Minor) In sanity check mode, the widget added to the
QGraphicsView is centered. With QGraphicsViewAdapter, it is not.
a) osgQtBrowser --useWidgetImage [--fullscreen]
b) The QTextEdit and button are not in the center of the image
generated by the QGraphicsViewAdapter.
c) osgQtBrowser --useWidgetImage --sanityCheck
d) The QTextEdit and button are in the center of the
QGraphicsView.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
As you can see I've put specific repro steps there too, so it's clear
what I mean by a given problem. The --sanityCheck mode is useful to see
what should happen in a "normal" Qt app that demonstrates the same
situation, so hopefully we can get to a point where it behaves the same
with --sanityCheck and without."
graphics context and link it with a slave camera. I don't know the
reason we perform like that, which will cause a problem that the
GUIEventHandler may not obtain correct window coordinates because the
main camera will use a default input range to receive events from the
slave camera's graphics context. It is also weird to see the
addSlave() used in non-cluster applications, which beginners will be
confused with.
I've make a slightly modification to the osgviewerMFC example to make
it work without setting slave cameras. I've tested with the MDI
framework and everything seems fine."

The new example, named osgviewerQtContext (because of deriving from GraphicsContext), works fine on Windows XP SP3 and Qt 4.5.0, with 4 widgets in QGridLayout and a popup window and 60Hz frame rate. I haven't tested it on Unix/Linux and Mac OSX yet. So any feedback from these platforms is appreciated. I wish this example be a useful complement to current osgviewerQt and osgviewerQtWidgets ones. :)
Some unfinished functionalities: inheritedWindowData, sharedContext, and more tests needed."
few headers and the osgAnimation sources are also modified to make
everything goes well, including:
A new REGISTER_OBJECT_WRAPPER2 macro to wrap classes like
Skeleton::UpdateSkeleton.
A bug fix in the Seralizer header which avoids setting default values
to objects.
Naming style fixes in osgAnimation headers and sources, also in the
deprecated dotosg wrappers.
A bug fix for the XML support, to write char values correctly.
A small change in the osg::Geometry wrapper to ignore the
InternalGeometry property, which is used by the MorphGeometry and
should not be set by user applications.
The avatar.osg, nathan.osg and robot.osg data files all work fine with
serializers, with some 'unsupported wrapper' warnings when converting.
I'm thinking of removing these warnings by disabling related property
serializers (ComputeBoundingBoxCallback and Drawable::UpdateCallback),
which are seldom recorded by users.
By the way, I still wonder how would we handle the C4121 problem,
discussed some days before. The /Zp compile option is set to 16 in the
attached cmake script file. And is there a better solution now?"

But I have #ifdef'ed it with WIN32. I can't test it on 64bit windows (not sure if x64 defines WIN32?)"
Bone now inherit from MatrixTransform. It simplify a lot the update of
Bone matrix. It helps to have the bone system more generic. eg it's now
possible to have animation data with precomputed bind matrix. The other
benefit, is now the collada plugin will be able to use osgAnimation to
display skinned mesh. Michael Plating did a great work to improve this
aspect, he is working on the collada plugin and should be able to submit
a new version soon.
The RigGeometry has been refactored so now it works when you save and
reload RigGeometry because the source is not touched anymore. The
benefit with this update is that it should be now possible to use a
MorphGeometry as source for a RigGeometry.
The bad news is that the format has changed, so i have rebuild osg-data
related to osgAnimation data, updated the blender exporter to export to
the new format.
The fbx plugin could be touched about this commit, i dont compile it so
i can't give more information about it.
The bvh plugin has been updated by Wang rui so this one is fixed with
the new code of osgAnimation.
The examples has been updated to work with the new code too...
The example osg-data/example.osg should be remove, it's an old example
that does not work.
For people using blender the blender exporter up to date is here:

modification will be push in the trunk.

Currently osg2cpp removes "\n" line endings to replace them with a textual equivalent ("\\n") in order for the string representing the shader to contain line endings in the string. But if the file that was read contained Windows line endings ("\r\n"), the resulting file looked really weird (the \r were left there and editors interpreted that as an additional newline). Also, I can imagine that if the shader file that was read had Mac line endings ("\r") then the output shader would all end up in one long line since there are no "\n"...
What I've done:
I've added a search and replace of "\r\n" to "\n", and then "\r" to "\n" (note that the order is important).
I've also changed the filename handling so that the output file will be put in the same directory as the input file in case it was specified with a path. Previous functionality is retained for files specified with the filename only.""

LD_LIBRARY_PATH so the XUL libs would be found) I noticed that although
the gecko plugin was found it could not be loaded. But this did not
trigger any visible warning/error message (at least not without INFO
notify level). Would you mind if we change the notify level for a
dlerror() to WARNING? This will also make it more explicit for the case
when a plugin isn't actually found, which seems to come up a lot for
novice users (e.g. no freetype on win32, so no freetype plugin, etc).
Also, the current error message is misleading ("Warning: Could not FIND
plugin to ...") because the it's not always a case of not finding the
plugin. I slightly enhanced the situation of not finding a plugin versus
finding it but not being able to load it.
Here's also a few fixes to some of the examples:
- osgfont: make usage help line more in line with the actual behaviour
- osgcompositeviewer: complain when no model file was provided
- osgmovie: don't include quicktime-dependent feature on Linux
- osgocclussionquery: comment addition (as I was surprised that lines
were being drawn in a function called createRandomTriangles())"
the workaround we discussed for adding/removing views in a composite
viewer at runtime. A dummy view is added to the viewer to always keep

address some OS X issues. Most of these fixes were previously submitted by Julian Scheid. However, this patch however should not break the example for non-OS X builds and has been tested on 64-bit Linux as well as Mac OS X 10.5.
o The value returned by QWidget::winId() is not usable as input for
WindowData under OS X the way it is for both Windows and Unix. Julian's fix
for this uses the Carbon API. Since the fix for X11 in unknown, it is now
assumed that OSG has been built with OSG_WINDOWING_SYSTEM='Carbon' for this
example to work at all when running under OS X.
o The CompositeViewer version would hang on exit with the original timer start
argument. Changing the argument value to match the non-composite version
seemed to cure the hanging.
o Julian's patch altered the setGeometry position to 30/30 in order to see any
window decorations. I did not have this problem, but left his changes intact.
o The non-composite viewer needed it's camera initialization defered until
after the ViewerQOSG's Qt base class had been initialized. Otherwise, the view
did not cover the entire window.

I have found some errors on the example osgGeometryShaders. It's about the varying in the geometry shader.
take a look at the varying vec4 v_color.
In the vertex shader, v_color is initialized to gl_vertex
then in the geometry shader v_color is initialized to gl_PositionIn[0]
and in the fragment shader v_color is used as the fragment color.
Try to initialized v_color to vec4(1.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0) in the vertex shader and comment the line :
" v_color = v;\n" in the geometry shader, and you will see the lines as black !
It's because you have to use keywords in and out.
extract from : http://www.opengl.org/registry/specs/EXT/geometry_shader4.txt :
in - for function parameters passed into a function or for input varying
variables (geometry only)
out - for function parameters passed back out of a function, but not
initialized for use when passed in. Also for output varying variables
(geometry only).
Then for a geometry shader, a varying must be an array :
extract from : http://www.opengl.org/registry/specs/EXT/geometry_shader4.txt :
Since a geometry shader operates on primitives, each input varying variable needs to be
declared as an array. Each element of such an array corresponds to a
vertex of the primitive being processed. If the varying variable is
declared as a scalar or matrix in the vertex shader, it will be a
one-dimensional array in the geometry shader. Each array can optionally
have a size declared. If a size is not specified, it inferred by the
linker and depends on the value of the input primitive type.
Here is a patch based on the svn version of osg that correct that.
"
set.
The optimization is based on the observation that matrix matrix multiplication
with a dense matrix 4x4 is 4^3 Operations whereas multiplication with a
transform, or scale matrix is only 4^2 operations. Which is a gain of a
*FACTOR*4* for these special cases.
The change implements these special cases, provides a unit test for these
implementation and converts uses of the expensiver dense matrix matrix
routine with the specialized versions.
Depending on the transform nodes in the scenegraph this change gives a
noticable improovement.
For example the osgforest code using the MatrixTransform is about 20% slower
than the same codepath using the PositionAttitudeTransform instead of the
MatrixTransform with this patch applied.
If I remember right, the sse type optimizations did *not* provide a factor 4
improovement. Also these changes are totally independent of any cpu or
instruction set architecture. So I would prefer to have this current kind of
change instead of some hand coded and cpu dependent assembly stuff. If we
need that hand tuned stuff, these can go on top of this changes which must
provide than hand optimized additional variants for the specialized versions
to give a even better result in the end.
An other change included here is a change to rotation matrix from quaterion
code. There is a sqrt call which couold be optimized away. Since we divide in
effect by sqrt(length)*sqrt(length) which is just length ...

* I split the mouse handling from a monolithic method to separate ones, slightly cleaner than a whole bunch of if()'s, especially with another case of the mouse entering the canvas.
* I changed the EVT_KEY_DOWN handler to an EVT_CHAR handler, although that now makes the up and down handler assymetric. The new down-handler returns translated key codes, so when you press the S key (without anything else), it actually returns 's' and not 'S' as the EVT_KEY_DOWN did. This means that statistics can be called up in the viewer window, while the example previously only printed a "Stats output:" line to the console. I'm not truly happy that the up handler returns _untranslated_ key codes. But solving this completely would probably mean adding some table that translated from wxWidgets' untranslated key codes to OSG's internal ones. This might be interesting to add, as anyone using OSG + wxWidgets in any serious manner would also have to add this.
* I commented out the evt.Skip()'s in the keyboard handlers as these would only be necessary if there were some key events that are not handled. But currently all key events are simply forwarded.
* I changed the handling of a mouse drag to a more general mouse move"
hyper keys defined already, but these modifiers were missing in
GUIEventAdapter::ModKeyMask, and the EventQueue ingored them as well.
The attached diff/archive adds the missing parts for Super/Hyper
modifier key support.
I'm aware that this might not be supported on all systems/keyboards
out of the box, but decided to submit it anyway because:
- developers are aware of differences between input devices
(Some mice have scroll wheels, others don't. Some have five or
more buttons, some have only one. Some keyboards don't have
numpads, some have AltGr, some don't etc.)
- even if someone relies on Hyper/Super in distributed software,
this is easy to fix and doesn't create lock-in conditions
- while the names Hyper/Super may only be common on X11, they are
just symbol names and not OS-specific
- even though some systems might not offer these additional modifiers
by default, it's likely that all of them have at least 8 modifier
levels internally, so it should only be a matter of OS configuration
to make them work
- having super/hyper available is useful to offer a user ways
to define local key definitions that are safe from collisions with
predefined "official" key assignments"

re-initialize at next update
- keep a list of Shader objects to use instead of the default ones, if
the list is empty, the default shaders are used
- explicitly create the Uniform variables, so that subsequent additions
that require more Uniforms can put them in a central place
- set a Light or LightSource to use explicitly for shadow casting,
allows multiple lights in the scene, with one casting shadows
There are two additions that do not ( yet ) function correctly, but in
the present usage they do not interfere with the regular usage of the
techique:
- support for using spotlights, it's using Light.spotCutoff to determine
if it's a spot-light and not point-light,
there is an error in the setup of either the shadow camera or the
texgen, most likely due to the direction of the spotlight, since the
position is being used just like in point or directional lights.
- creation of a debugHUD
the hud is created properly, ( the example included shows it ), but
it displays only white, there has been some discussion of displaying the
shadow map, but I could not find it, the addition of a simple fragment
shader with the appropriate color transform should get this going."
"" for all platforms except Cygwin where its set to "cygwin_" and Mingw where
it is set to "mingw_". Updated osgDB::Registry to look for these for the plugins.
Updated the osgintrospection example to search for these names as well.
(a) some objects behind the camera can cast shadow
(b) object aboive the camera can cast shadow
then i fixed the shadow map orientation, now screen x coordinate alinged which improve the quality"
- When using a large numbrer of files, the command line was too long;
Added a -files option that allow to store filenames in a file (one file
per line)
- Added some more intuitive key bindings for controls (left, right, + ,
-)
- Set the texture wrapping to CLAMP_TO_EDGE (it's cleaner now)
"
Attached the modified version of MFC_OSG_MDIView.cpp and MFC_OSG_MDIView.h."
Note from Robert Osfield, submission came with wrong header file, so have had
to guess at what it should be, fingers crossed it worn't break windows build... :-)
osgviewerWX: "To make the example compile using a wx build non UNICODE based.
Tested on Linux with wxGTK 2.8.4"
osgviewerFOX: "Added removeChore() call in the FOX_OSG_MDIView destructor to get rid of a Trace/BPT trap
error on exit on Linux. BTW this is suggested also in the FOX documentation."
