Multiple Camera Views

xnsmx · 03-18-2009, 02:50 AM

Hi everyone,

I would like create somethign that allows the user to have a secondary view of the world. It would be as if there was a secondary camera that would display what it sees in small window on the corner of the plugin, similar to Globe Icon, however I want to be able to view from the same world. Does anyone know of any plugins that has this functionality, or would know how to create a secondary camera view?

Bump. I need to know if there is such a feature in WWJ , or must I create a totally new "canvas" with a brand new set of renderables.

Thanks for any answer on this.

Multiple views of the same globe model are not implemented in WWJ yet.

Just open another NWWJ app, works OK for me.
You may want to set the smaller instance
frame.setAlwaysOnTop(true);
I have not had the need for that so have not tried it that way.

Changing the view from one location to another instantly works for me.
