This repository contains a widget based on QOpenGLWidget that is able to wrap a viewer from the OpenSceneGraph library. This makes it possible to combine both toolkits in a thread-safe manner.

Moreover, the widget demonstrates several interaction mechanisms:

1. Rectangular selection processing
2. Pick handling
3. Node file writing (for debug purposes)

• Linux or MacOS X (see below for a brief discussion on supporting Microsoft Windows)
• A recent C++ compiler with support for C++11
• CMake (minimum version 2.8.11)
• Qt5
• OpenSceneGraph

I am not familiar enough with graphics programming for Microsoft Windows to fully support this as a target platform. In issue 7, it was briefly discussed that some modifications are required for QtOSG to fully compile/work under Microsoft Windows. If you want to target this platform, I would be glad for the help!

Thanks to Martial Tola, support for compiling under Microsoft Windows has been added to the project and I am looking forward to any comments.

$ git clone https://github.com/Submanifold/QtOSG
$ cd QtOSG
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ cmake ../
$ make

Additional build options can be configured by issuing ccmake . in the build directory. In particular, you can toggle the following options:

• WITH_PICK_HANDLER: toggle to compile with/without support for point picking
• WITH_SELECTION_PROCESSING: toggle to compile with/without support for rectangular selections

The demo application merely demonstrates basic usage of the widget. Don't expect too much! Start the application by issuing ./qtosg in the build directory.

The following key bindings are active:

• d: writes the current scene graph to /tmp/sceneGraph.osg
• h: resets the view to home
• s: toggles selection processing (if compiled); if active, hold left mouse button down to draw a selection rectangle; selected objects will be shown on the console
