How to perform volume rendering using m_chart?

Post by jhyap » Tue Jul 16, 2013 9:29 am

Hi Arction Support Team,

I would like to perform volume rendering using LightingChartUltimate.

I have the 3D data set as per below:
3D data
3D data
3D data.JPG (41.63 KiB) Viewed 9415 times
The outcome of the result should be something looks like this (The LHS pic is the standard result of volume rendering, the center pic and RHS pic are the result of volume rendering with shadow effect) :
result of cloud rendering
result of cloud rendering
result of cloud rendering.JPG (23.58 KiB) Viewed 9415 times
May I know what kind of 3D series should I use to perform volume rendering?

SurfaceGridSeries + WaterfallSeries ?
OR
PointLineSeries3D ?

Regards

Hi JH,

Volume rendering routines are not built-in inside LightningChart. You have to use external routines and present it in SurfaceMeshSeries3D. That's the only series that allows free warping of 3D surfaces.
