How to Position  a vgObject

 

Vega Code Example

 

 

 

 

 

  
 

This example function illustrates :

  • How to position a  vgObject
  • How to test if a vgObject is positionable
  • How to set the X,Y, Z,H,P,R coordinates of an vgObject
  • How to use vgDeletePos
  • How create a vgPos instance
  • How to use a vgPos instance
  • Note an vgObject coordinate system type property (VGOBJ_CS) must be set to VGPOBJ_DYNAMIC in order to be able to position an vgObject
  • Note if an vgObject is attached to a vgPlayer then you have to position the vgPlayer and not the vgObject
