[osg-users] Outlining a node (Beginner)

[Lex Wilk]

Hi,

I've had a look at my code and I've come up with this updated method of adding the outline, which works for a certain part of my robot, in this case the drawable of the UpperArm, however I'm still experiencing the same issue of flickering on and off when I try and use it. 

Any help would be appreciated :D


Code:
findNodeVisitor upperArm("UpperArmRotator"); 
wholeModel->accept(upperArm); 

osgFX::Outline* upperArmOutline = new osgFX::Outline();
upperArmOutline->setWidth(100); //in an attempt to see it better
upperArmOutline->setColor(osg::Vec4(1, 1, 0, 1));

osg::Node* upperArmDrawable = upperArm.getFirst()->asGroup()->getChild(1);

upperArmOutline->addChild(upperArmDrawable);
upperArm.getFirst()->asGroup()->replaceChild(upperArm.getFirst()->asGroup()->getChild(1), upperArmOutline);





Thank you!

Cheers,
Lex
