 | | Can LDGLite print the current orientation matrix? (feature request)
|
|
I have been playing a bit around with the interactive rotation mode in LDGLite to find a good angle on my cargo aircraft. I think I have found it now, but how can I get LDGLite to print the parameters as a: a) complete set of command line arguments (...) (23 years ago, 3-Jan-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) L3Lab can do this (in the statistics menu), and I would certainly like to see this feature in LDGLite as well! Fredrik (23 years ago, 3-Jan-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) I think it spews the information needed for A if you turn on debugging with the -g switch. eg. Transform current: Translation: 0 0 0 Matrix: 0.821417 -0.129189 0.555497 0.417763 0.799364 -0.431845 -0.388257 0.586794 0.710583 Actually, I think (...) (23 years ago, 3-Jan-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) I should be able to work out a part of the command line arguments from that, but I am so lazy, that I actually would like LDGLite to print it as: Arguments: -a0.821417,-0.129189...4,0.710583 -q -j or whatever the status - including projection, (...) (23 years ago, 3-Jan-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Ok the current copy of main.c in CVS has a function that does part A. I have most of part B working, but I don't completely understand the STEREO stuff in the location part of an l3p camera setting. Can you or somebody explain it? I can create (...) (23 years ago, 8-Jan-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

Jacob recently asked for an ldglite enhancement to dump ldglite command line args and POV camera settings which reproduce the current view. I assume he means l3p compatible camera settings. I think I have it working (except for my question about the (...) (23 years ago, 10-Jan-02, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.ray)
