[osg-users] When gets the view matrix of a camera ipdated

[Robert Osfield]

Hi Werner,

The initial draw callback is called at the start of the draw traversal
for that Camera's rendering graph, this rendering graph is populated
by the cull traversal which happens prior to the draw traversal, this
includes all the accumulation of all the matrices in the scene graph
into final modelview matrices, so changing the Camera's view matrix
during the initial draw callback won't affect the rendering result for
that frame.

You should set the Camera's view matrix in the update or at latest
cull traversal. Have a look at the RTT Camera's in the osgShadow
library.


Robert.
