Detailed Description

Provides the facility to load an existing Scene

Given a 3D source file, the Qt3DRender::QSceneLoader will try to parse it and build a tree of Qt3DCore::QEntity objects with proper Qt3DRender::QGeometryRenderer, Qt3DCore::QTransform and Qt3DRender::QMaterial components.

The loader will try to determine the best material to be used based on the properties of the model file. If you wish to use a custom material, you will have to traverse the tree and replace the default associated materials with yours.

As the name implies, Qt3DRender::QSceneLoader loads a complete scene subtree. If you wish to load a single piece of geometry, you should rather use the Qt3DRender::QMesh instead.

Qt3DRender::QSceneLoader internally relies on the use of plugins to support a wide variety of 3D file formats. Here is a list of formats that are supported by Qt3D.

Note: this component shouldn't be shared among several Qt3DCore::QEntity instances. Undefined behavior will result.

See also Qt3DRender::QMesh and Qt3DRender::QGeometryRenderer.
