Here is a curve in the 3D scene, the sphere represents its center. I want to find the axes of the 3D model just as vtkOBBTree, relative article: Explore The Orientation Of 3D Object. But all points on the curve are in the same plane, so neither vtkOBBTree nor vtkHull Read more…
I planed to show the 3D model’s bounds in the display coordinate and update it if the user rotates and zooms in/out in real-time. I’m curious about if the display bounds touch with the 3D model. The display bounds are shown as a red rectangle in the render window, our Read more…
We often use vtkPropPicker to judge which 2D actor had been picked, but the solution doesn’t work in the Mac software Parallels. So we have to create a new method to found the 2D actor which had been picked. There are two situations in my problem. The actor2D takes vtkImageMapper Read more…
We have a vtkTextActor object in the render window now. How to put it at the right-top corner or the left-bottom corner in the render window according to the render and text rectangle’s size? The following code snippet shows the different scenes described above. #include <iostream> #include <vtkSmartPointer.h> #include <vtkSphereSource.h> Read more…
There is a massive module in my project, it computes many data tasks, update UI, and is responsible for interaction style. I want to move the user interaction part to another viewer class, make the old module more lightweight. The structure of the module class looks like the following snippet. Read more…
We will got the following left part’s effect when zoom in and zoom out in VTK render window. How to keep the same display size for the 3D model cube when zoom in or zoom out? VTK changes camera’s status in the interfaces vtkInteractorStyleTrackballCamera::OnMouseWheelForward and vtkInteractorStyleTrackballCamera::OnMouseWheelBackward, the action Dolly moves Read more…
The article introduces how to display an image by OpenCV in CPlusPlus and Python language. The user can exit the whole program when he presses the ESC key. CPP CMakeLists.txt macro(use_cxx11) if (CMAKE_VERSION VERSION_LESS “3.1”) if (CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER_ID STREQUAL “GNU”) set (CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS “${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} -std=gnu++11”) endif () else () set (CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD 11) Read more…
The inital scene is like the following image, here are an axes actor and an irregular 3D model. We want to find all points that are on the model and face the plane which has normal (0, 1, 0) and origin (0, -10, 0). My solution spend a lot time, Read more…
We have to calculate the vector on the special direction firstly. void CalculateVecComponent(PointStruct originVec, PointStruct &axis0, PointStruct &vecOnAxis) { double cosTheta = originVec.Dot( axis0 ); return axis0*cosTheta; } Project point on line Point GetProjectPtOnDir(Point pt, Point dir, Point startPt) { dir.Unit(); Point ptVector = pt – startPt; double cosTheta = Read more…
