Unigine.Visualizer Class

Sort by:

List of functions:

Controls visualizer-related settings. The visualizer is used to render mesh wireframe, object bounding boxes, and all sorts of visual helpers (such as physical collision shapes, joints, etc.).

Usage Example

To render a world origin, do the following:

Source code (C#)

// AppWorldLogic.cs
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;

using Unigine;

namespace UnigineApp
{
	class AppWorldLogic : WorldLogic
	{

	public override int init()
		{
			/* ... */
			// enable the visualizer
			Visualizer.get().setEnabled(1);

			return 1;
		}


		public override int update()
		{
			// render world origin
			Visualizer.get().renderVector(new dvec3(0.0f, 0.0f, 0.1f), new dvec3(1.0f, 0.0f, 0.1f), new vec4(1.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f));
			Visualizer.get().renderVector(new dvec3(0.0f, 0.0f, 0.1f), new dvec3(0.0f, 1.0f, 0.1f), new vec4(0.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f));
			Visualizer.get().renderVector(new dvec3(0.0f, 0.0f, 0.1f), new dvec3(0.0f, 0.0f, 1.1f), new vec4(0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f));

			return 1;
		}
	}
}
