* INTRODUCTION
- LibGizmo is a small, standalone library that adds a 3D matrix (4x4 floats) manipulation control
called 'Gizmo'. It consists of 3 different controls: a Move, a Rotate and a Scale. It works the
same way as in 3DStudio Max or Maya. It's written using C++ and the current implementation use
OpenGL fixed pipeline. Integration should be easy.

* USE
- Set include path to inc, library path to lib
- Link with LibGizmoDebug.lib for debug build, LibGizmo.lib for release
- In your code :
#include "iGizmo.h"
- create one or more Gizmo with the functions : CreateMoveGizmo(), CreateRotateGizmo(), CreateScaleGizmo()
- set a pointer to the 16 floats composing the matrix you want to edit
gizmo->SetEditMatrix( objectMatrix );
- Any time the display viewport changes, call SetScreenDimensions
gizmo->SetScreenDimension( screenWidth, screenHeight );
- Once a frame, call SetCameraMatrix. The matrices you send
float viewMat[16];
float projMat[16];
glGetFloatv (GL_MODELVIEW_MATRIX, viewMat );
glGetFloatv (GL_PROJECTION_MATRIX, projMat );
gizmo->SetCameraMatrix( viewMat, projMat );
- Draw the gizmo
gizmo->Draw();
- Change the kind of matrix manipulation (view, local, world). Example for 'WORLD' mode:
gizmo->SetLocation( IGizmo::LOCATE_WORLD );
- When you receive a mouse button down, call
if (gizmo->OnMouseDown( mousex, mousey ))
SetCapture( hWnd );
This methods returns true if you have to capture the mouse. mousex and mousey are display viewport
local coordinates. 0,0 is upper left.
- for mouse move and mouse button up, call:
gizmo->OnMouseMove( mousex, mousey );
gizmo->OnMouseUp( mousex, mousey );
********************************************************************************************************
* RENDERING
- The rendering code is done by OpenGL Fixed pipeline. The implementation is done in GizmoTransformRender.cpp.
6 methodes are called by all the 3 gizmo:
void DrawCircle(const tvector3 &orig,float r,float g,float b,const tvector3 &vtx,const tvector3 &vty);
void DrawCircleHalf(const tvector3 &orig,float r,float g,float b,const tvector3 &vtx,const tvector3 &vty,tplane &camPlan);
void DrawAxis(const tvector3 &orig, const tvector3 &axis, const tvector3 &vtx,const tvector3 &vty, float fct,float fct2,const tvector4 &col);
void DrawCamem(const tvector3& orig,const tvector3& vtx,const tvector3& vty,float ng);
void DrawQuad(const tvector3& orig, float size, bool bSelected, const tvector3& axisU, const tvector3 &axisV);
void DrawTri(const tvector3& orig, float size, bool bSelected, const tvector3& axisU, const tvector3& axisV);
You can implement those methods using any API. There aren't any other call to a rendering library anywhere
else. There is an old (untested) version using DX9 api.
********************************************************************************************************
* TODO
- Linux/MacOSX port
- Code cleanup
- improve example with local/world/screen space change
- DX10/11 rendering
