Detailed Description

Renders a Qt 3D Studio presentation on a QWindow or an offscreen render target using OpenGL.

Q3DSSurfaceViewer is used to render Qt 3D Studio presentations onto a QSurface. In practice this means two types of uses: rendering to an on-screen QWindow, or rendering to an offscreen render target (typically an OpenGL texture via a framebuffer object and a QOffscreenSurface).

Example Usage

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    QGuiApplication app(argc, argv);

    QOpenGLContext context;
    context.create();

    QWindow window;
    window.setSurfaceType(QSurface::OpenGLSurface);
    window.setFormat(context.format());
    window.create();

    Q3DSSurfaceViewer viewer;
    viewer.presentation()->setSource(QUrl(QStringLiteral("qrc:/my_presentation.uip")));
    viewer.setUpdateInterval(0); // enable automatic updates

    // Register a scene object for slide management (optional)
    Q3DSSceneElement scene(viewer.presentation(), QStringLiteral("Scene"));

    // Register an element object for attribute setting (optional)
    Q3DSElement element(viewer.presentation(), QStringLiteral("myCarModel"));

    viewer.create(&window, &context);

    w.resize(1024, 768);
    w.show();

    return app.exec();
}

Property Documentation

autoSize : bool

Specifies whether the viewer should change the size of the presentation automatically to match the surface size when surface size changes. The size property is updated automatically whenever the viewer is updated if this property value is true.

When rendering offscreen, via a QOffscreenSurface, this property must be set to false by the application since it is then up to the application to provide a QOpenGLFramebufferObject with the desired size. The size of the Q3DSSurfaceViewer must be set to the same value.

The default value is true.

Access functions:

bool autoSize() const
void setAutoSize(bool autoSize)

Notifier signal:

void autoSizeChanged()

error : const QString

Contains the text for the error message that was generated during the loading of the presentation. When no error occurred or there is no presentation loaded, the value is an empty string.

This property is read-only.

Access functions:

QString error() const

Notifier signal:

void errorChanged()

running : const bool

The value of this property is true when the presentation has been loaded and is ready to be shown.

This property is read-only.

Access functions:

bool isRunning() const

Notifier signal:

void runningChanged()

size : QSize

Holds the desired size of the presentation. Relevant only when autoSize is set to false.

Access functions:

QSize size() const
void setSize(const QSize &size)

Notifier signal:

void sizeChanged()

See also autoSize.

updateInterval : int

Holds the viewer update interval in milliseconds. If the value is negative, the viewer doesn't update the presentation automatically.

The default value is -1, meaning there are no automatic updates and update() must be called manually.

Access functions:

int updateInterval() const
void setUpdateInterval(int interval)

Notifier signal:

void updateIntervalChanged()

See also update().

Member Function Documentation

Q3DSSurfaceViewer::Q3DSSurfaceViewer(QObject *parent = nullptr)

Default constructs an instance of Q3DSSurfaceViewer.

[protected] Q3DSSurfaceViewer::Q3DSSurfaceViewer(Q3DSSurfaceViewerPrivate &dd, QObject *parent)

Default constructs an instance of Q3DSSurfaceViewer.

[virtual] Q3DSSurfaceViewer::~Q3DSSurfaceViewer()

Destroys the instance of Q3DSSurfaceViewer. The destructor is virtual.

QOpenGLContext *Q3DSSurfaceViewer::context() const

Returns the context given in initialization.

See also create().

bool Q3DSSurfaceViewer::create(QSurface *surface, QOpenGLContext *context)

Initializes Q3DSSurfaceViewer to render the presentation to the given surface using the context.

The source property of the attached presentation must be set before the viewer can be initialized.

Returns whether the initialization succeeded.

See also running, Q3DSPresentation::source, and presentation().

bool Q3DSSurfaceViewer::create(QSurface *surface, QOpenGLContext *context, uint fboId)

Initializes Q3DSSurfaceViewer to render the presentation to the given surface using the context and optional framebuffer id (fboId). If fboId is omitted, it defaults to zero.

The source property of the attached presentation must be set before the viewer can be initialized.

Returns whether the initialization succeeded.

See also running, Q3DSPresentation::source, and presentation().

void Q3DSSurfaceViewer::destroy()

Releases the presentation and all related resources.

The Q3DSSurfaceViewer instance can be reused by calling create() again.

uint Q3DSSurfaceViewer::fboId() const

Returns the framebuffer id given in initialization.

See also create().

[signal] void Q3DSSurfaceViewer::frameUpdate()

This signal is emitted each time a frame has been rendered.

QImage Q3DSSurfaceViewer::grab(const QRect &rect = QRect())

Grabs the data rendered to the framebuffer into an image using the given rect. The rect parameter is optional. If it is omitted, the whole framebuffer is captured.

Note: This is a potentially expensive operation.

Q3DSPresentation *Q3DSSurfaceViewer::presentation() const

Returns the presentation object used by the Q3DSSurfaceViewer.

[signal] void Q3DSSurfaceViewer::presentationLoaded()

This signal is emitted when the presentation has been loaded and is ready to be shown.

Q3DSViewerSettings *Q3DSSurfaceViewer::settings() const

Returns the settings object used by the Q3DSSurfaceViewer.

QSurface *Q3DSSurfaceViewer::surface() const

Returns the surface given in initialization.

See also create().

[slot] void Q3DSSurfaceViewer::update()

Updates the surface viewer with a new frame.
