The DatabasePager now passes the Terrain pointer into the ReaderWriter's via osgDB::Options object,
rather than pushing a NodePath containing the Terrain onto NodeVisitor. This
change means that the DatabasePager nolonger needs to observer the whole NodePath and
will be lighter and quicker for it.
The change also means that ReadFileCallback can now run custom NodeVisitor's on the scene graph without
having to worry about TerrainTile's constructing scene graphs prior to the Terrain being assigned.
Also changed is the NodeVisitor::DatabaseRequestHandler which now requires a NodePath to the node that you wish
to add to rather than just the pointer to the node you wish to add to. This is more robust when handling scenes
with multiple parental paths, whereas previously errors could have occurred due to the default of picking the first
available parental path. This change means that subclasses of DatabasePager will need to be updated to use this new
function entry point.
I uses a queue of Camera objects to do offscreen rendering with the Camera::attach() function. The entire picture is split into many tiles and it will take a few seconds while attaching and detaching cameras with tiles. You may select to output every tile as an image file, or combine them together to create a large poster, for example, a 12800 x 9600 image.
Start the program like this:
./osgposter --output-poster --poster output.bmp --tilesize 800 600 --finalsize 8000 6000 cow.osg
Adjust the scene camera to a suitable position and press 'p' or 'P' on the keyboard. Wait until sub-cameras dispatching is finished. And the poster file will be created while closing window. A 8000 x 6000 output.bmp will be created to show a fine-printed cow. :)
The command below may also help:
./osgposter --help
