Updating shared geometry Software: Away3D 4.x

FlyOn, Jr. Member Posted: 21 April 2012 09:25 AM Total Posts: 36 I didn’t get any answers in support, so I’m gonna try it as a bug? I’m trying to update the geometry that several objects share. `geo = new PlaneGeometry(); mesh = new Mesh(geo, new ColorMaterial(0x0ff0f0)); mesh2 = new Mesh(geo, new ColorMaterial(0xffff00)); mesh2.x = 200; mesh2.z = 200; scene.addChild(mesh); scene.addChild(mesh2); geo.width = 400;` this will show two planes with 400 as width But if I remove the line `geo.width = 400` and add it to some onClick eventHandler, the planes remain square even though the code is executed and tracing geo.width shows 400… My bad or is this a bug?
John Brookes, Moderator Posted: 21 April 2012 10:33 AM Total Posts: 732 [ # 1 ] No idea if its a bug, but something like `private function onMeshMouseDown(e:MouseEvent3D):void { CubeGeometry((e.object as Mesh).geometry).width += 10; (e.object as Mesh).geometry.subGeometries[0].updateVertexData((e.object as Mesh).geometry.subGeometries[0].vertexData); }` would change the width of a cube on mouseclick.
