PROGRAMMERS' NOTES

Technical Article

Controlling the Drawing Order of 3D Objects

Software developers using HOOPS often ask how to add legends to their 3D scene. 3D objects by themselves are very useful in conveying information, but it may be necessary to add additional information such as what a color may indicate. Adding a legend often makes the scene more useful. This article focuses on adding a legend to a HOOPS scene.
