[osg-users] Trigger some function when PagedLOD finishes openening a node

[Bruno Oliveira]

Hello Robert,

thank you very much for the detailed answer. I implemented an app based on
Qt. My draw/frame events are only called when the user makes some action
(e.g. Mouse Click, Mouse Move). Is there a way I could bypass this and use
the osgViewer:::ViewerBase::ON_DEMAND option?
