KML modification of the 3D Mesh. #921

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
I've got a model which is primarily the interior of one condo in a large 
building. And so I want to look around inside the condo and show what it would 
look like from the inside. Outside through the windows should be the 3d mesh so 
you get a feel for the view. Unfortunately since the building is in the same 
space as my model what happens is they conflict with each other and you see 
stuff from the 3d mesh. In addition it appears that the mesh kind of pushes my 
model a bit higher so placeholders no longer are positioned where they should 
be relative to the model. 

This feature should allow a kml to alter the content of the 3d mesh making a 
square box of void surrounding the model removing anything in it's path. It 
should have a checkbox on the model which will allow you to enable or disable 
this feature. This setting would only take affect in the context of the kml 
being loaded on the client and would be ignored in the event the model is 
displayed as a result of an accepted building that displays by default in the 
legacy building layer.

To be clear by "3D mesh" I mean "3D Imagery data"

I second this request. Maybe it would be possible to create a "void" in the 3D 
imagery data client side, based on KML latlonaltbox?
