Enable WireFrame for specific objects (spatial)

Troubleshooting General Help

Is there anyway to enable a spatial’s wireframe to render (without changing its already applied material)?



I’ve seen in the docs/snippets references to attachDebugShape (but this is a protected method on PhysicsCollisionObject, is there another one I’m missing?).

Also I have seen references to WireFrame material, (but I would prefer to continue to render the already applied material…is it possible to have 2 materials on an object?).



note: all my objects in this ‘world’ are Physics objects, but I do not see a way enable a specific object to render its wireframe).



Thanx :slight_smile:

Attach SkeletonDebugger controls for your rigid body models.

Maybe this would be helpful :slight_smile:

Hi guys thanx for the pointers (I think…I’m 50% there)…



I tried:

material.getAdditionalRenderState().setWireframe(true);



and its working to show the wireframe, but if call it again with false as an argument, it doesn’t revert to solid rendering…

i.e. material.getAdditionalRenderState().setWireframe(false);



also…I was technically hoping to see the faces rendered in full, but to actually see the wire frame (edges) stand out as well…but for my purposes thats not really a big deal…I will continue poke around, and see what happens :slight_smile:
