Volume selection is not accurate enough. #3

Closed ric-bianchi closed 4 years ago

ric-bianchi commented 4 years ago

Users should be able to select a volume by left-clicking on the surface of the volume.

However, the volume gets selected even when left-clicking on the "void space" around the volume.

The selection mechanism should be improved. Users should be able to accurately select a single volume in a busy environment.

Could you check and fix this, @huajian1069 ? Thanks a lot!

Best, -- Riccardo.

I have checked before. But I still got no luck in this problem. The second issue is caused by the same reason as this one: the default bounding volume picking method cannot be changed by API in documentation. I asked 4 times on the Qt Forum (see this) but has got really helpful answers. I am sad that this problem is still there for long time.

The only solution I found is that: rewriting the major part of project with QML language. Then a big challenge is how to transfer data between qml and c++ because there are some works such as reading .db file which cannot be handled by qml. I am studying qt3d official examples now. Tell me if I should keep following along this way.

Best, Huajian

I'm reading the ticket you opened on the Qt forum and the thread you linked there. I'll come back to you after reading that.
