Circle Geometry

Post by draperg » Thu 20. Jul 2006, 23:31

Does jReality currently include a Circle or Disk class to facilitate creating 2D circles (either filled or outline), in addition to the existing Sphere and Cylinder classes?

thanks,
Geoff

Never mind... After posting that question, I've since discovered the Primitives.regularPolygon() method, which works just fine for my purposes! :)

Hi Geoff,

if everything would work as is should I would suggest to use a cylinder as a geometry and a matrix that flattens it into the xy plane. But for now jogl renderer ignores the top and bottom ngon of a cylinder and so does picking. So for now keep your ngon... we will fix this.

Bye, Steffen.
