Subject: Re: [remove node] rootnodes/nodes issue Sender: dan.vera@gmail.com 10.08.07 02:45 Hello Andrea, I do not know how to remove a node from the scene directly using the SDK. I am not sure this can be done. I personally do that via a script node that uses the "removeChildren" event of a transform node: my code looks like this: DEF a_script Script {     eventIn SFNode a_node_to_remove field SFNode my_transform_node IS the_transorm_node url "javascript: function remove_node (a_SFnode) { my_transform.removeChildren = New MFNode(a_SFNode); } "} So if you know the transform node that has the geometry you want to remove, as a child, you can embed a script node in your scene that will handle the children removal. Send the node you want to remove to it. This is not the simple approach you were hoping for i guess, but that is a solution. Hope this will help. If you find a better one, let me know!! ;) Cheers dan Hallo everybody, I'm trying to remove a complex shape from the scenegraph. The shape is contained into a DEF named Transform node. I can easily get the node through the get_Nodes()/get_Item(name), but when I try to remove it the call fails. I read that the get_Nodes collection is read-only, but given that my DEF node is not a root node, how can I retrieve it through a get_RootNodes? I though something like 1) get DEF node through get_Nodes 2) get parent node 3) get again DEF node through node->get_RootNodes 4) remove it but I don't know how to get the parent node of a node. Anyway there must be a simpler approach. I work on Cortona 4.1/VC++6. Thanks a million for any hints, Andrea   [reply] [back to forum] [new message] [all forums] [remove node] rootnodes/nodes issue / Andrea B / 2.08.07 07:45      Re: [remove node] rootnodes/nodes issue / dan.vera@gmail.com / 10.08.07 02:45 Messages in thread: 2 [reply] [back to forum] [new message] [all forums]
