prosvg + 3d (Read 601 times)

prosvg + 3d

hi all

i was just wondering if it was possible to use the prosvg lib to export svg files if a sketch is 3d as the size function only seems to take 3 arguments so i can't have for example:

size(800,600,OPENGL,"prosvg.SVGOut");

cheers
rene.

whoops, just read that it's an extension of the 2d renderer. would be great to see a 3d version in the future though as the current lib is so useful.

The new PDF library added with release 101 will be able to eventually export 2D vector files from 3D Processing sketches. A DXF export library is planned for exporting files in 3D format.

right, so in fact the way it will work will be that you'll use size(800, 600, OPENGL); and then when you want to grab a frame:

Code:
void draw() {
  if (saving) beginRaw(PDF, "output.pdf");

  // etc

  if (saving) {
    endRaw(); 
    saving = false;
  }
}


if the svg library is updated to extend PGraphics (it may already), then this will work with the svg library too.

this functionality is currently being worked out, and should be more available in a few releases (it's there but not working correctly yet).
