NAME

vmview − create multiple rendered images for 3d polygons

SYNOPSIS

vmview [if=infile] [of=outfile] [iv=viewlist] [s=size] [-s]] [f=<fudge>] [-v3] [-v6] [-v]

DESCRIPTION

Vmview renders mutiple views of a polygon file. The viewing directions for rendering are specified by the iv= parameter. The format for the view direction file is a text file containing xangle, yangle pairs specifed in degrees. These viewing directions may be obtained from a vertex file by using v3dtovp. The output is a set of images one for each view direction.

CONSTRAINTS

Not fully implemented, currently only greyscale rendering mode.

OPTIONS

if=

input file

[iv=]

A file which specifies the viewing directions for each image to be rendered.

[f=]

set the "fudge" value as a fraction of an increase of the bounding box.

[s=]

specify the size of the rendered image (same value for x and y)

-v3

compute the three cardinal viewing directions z, x and y

-v6

compute all six cardinal viewing directions z, x and y

-s

compute only the z viewing direction

-v

verbose mode
