[osg-users] ClipNode Opposite Behavior

[Glenn Waldron]

Erick,
gl_FragCoord is almost certainly not what you want (Google it). Try
something like this:

Vertex shader:

uniform vec3 center;
varying float dist;
void main()
{
    vec4 vertex = gl_ModelViewMatrix * gl_Vertex;
    dist = length(center - vertex.xyz);
}

Fragment shader:

uniform float rad;
varying float dist;
void main()
{
    if ( rad < dist )
        discard;
    else
        gl_FragColor = ...;
}
