Animated view position

[tatvasoft5122]

Hello all,

How can we get the position of animated view?

Please explain a bit what exactly you try to do. I'm not sure what you are talking about. You get the camera position with the getPosition call of the camera, but I suspect that's not what you mean.

I have full body view in animation, but I need to screen capture some part from the animation at particular point. For example I need the screen shot for hand at some point. Therefore I am trying to get the position of view.

If it's a bone animation you can use IAnimatedMeshSceneNode:: getJointNode to access specific parts. You will get a IBoneSceneNode* which is derived from ISceneNode so it has a getPosition() function. You probably have to set IAnimatedMeshSceneNode::setJoingMode to (irr::scene::EJUOR_READ) first to get those nodes created. Note that this is not a cost-free operation - as it means those nodes will be updated each frame. So you may want to set it back to EJUOR_NONE when you are done.
