IGuiMeshviewer scale mesh

[saltytaco1234]

I'm using the IGUIMeshviewer everything's working correctly. All I want to know is, how do you scale a mesh in the IGUIMeshViewer?

You type the x,y,z scale values into the "scale" editfield and press "set". Or with newer versions (trunk) you can also click the *10 and *0.1 Buttons.
If it does not work you have probably a collada file... that's something I just noticed recently. The problem with those is that it does not load a mesh but scene, so right now our scale-buttons don't do anything for that. Might be changed some day.

As workaround for single collada-meshes you can outcomment that line:

Code: Select all

 
smgr->getParameters()->setAttribute(scene::COLLADA_CREATE_SCENE_INSTANCES, true);

Ummm... did I misunderstand you, or did you misunderstand me?

I'm not sure, but you will have to scale the mesh in the mesh buffer, the MeshViewer GUI element doesnt use a real camera. Or play with matrix transformations...

... or try scaling the mesh you send using the manipulator ( smgr->getMeshManipulator()->scale(yourMesh, newScaleVec); )

Neither ways work, so I might do a viewport or something, do a bunch of math, and see how that goes.

Ooops, I misunderstood - I was thinking about the MeshViewer and overread the IGui part.

I saw tutorial #13 I'm going to use render to Texture.
