Are there any examples showing Viewport2DVisual3D with HelixView3D.  Can this type of 2D on 3D be achieved with the HelixToolKit.

 

Thanks

Hi DuaneTNM, sorry there is no example using Viewport2DVisual3D. But I don't think there should be any problem to use it with the controls in HelixToolkit! 

mipa87 wrote at 2011-08-30 17:42:

First, thank you for this project.

How can I use common WPF controls (buttons, sliders) with this toolkit (with supporting button click, slider value changed and etc.)? I'm using Viewport2DVisual3D for this, render is ok, but events are not triggered. What I'm doing wrong?

Thanks

Here is my code:

             <helix:HelixView3D IsHeadLightEnabled="True" ZoomToFitWhenLoaded="True" ShowFrameRate="True" ShowFieldOfView="True" ShowCoordinateSystem="True" MouseDown="HelixView3D_MouseDown" Name="helixView3D" IsHitTestVisible="true">
                <helix:HelixView3D.Camera>
                    <PerspectiveCamera Position="0, 0, 4"/>
                </helix:HelixView3D.Camera>
                <ModelVisual3D>
                    <ModelVisual3D.Content>
                        <Model3DGroup x:Name="group">
                            <DirectionalLight Color="White" Direction="-1, -1, -3" />

Thanks for the reply, I solved it with IsViewportHitTestVisible="True"

Here is good article about it: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms752097.aspx

I have one another question, what's the difference between HelixView3D and ViewPort3DConrtroller?

And here is my working code:

	</ModelVisual3D>

objo wrote at 2011-09-14 09:24:

try the newest version of the library, hopefully the fix on UIElements works.

Note that HelixView3D is renamed to HelixViewport3D and the IsViewportHitTestVisible property is removed.

Hi,

I have just started using HelixToolkit and trying to load a 3D model (.ply) in my WPF application using FileModelVisual3D with the following code:

 

FileModelVisual3D scan = new FileModelVisual3D();
scan.Source = "C:\\box.3ds";
       
myview.Children.Add(scan); //myview is my HelixViewport3D
this.Content = myview;

Running the above code does not show the model. Any suggestions?

Thanks

MVVM with background work

g_todeschini wrote at 2013-08-13 17:41:

I'm trying to create a WPF application using the MVVM pattern.
In my view (UserControl class derived) I've placed the HelixViewport3D control and I've assigned an instance of my ViewModel to the DataContext property

<h:HelixViewport3D RotateGesture="Alt+RightClick" PanGesture="RightClick">
<h:HelixViewport3D.Camera>
<OrthographicCamera Position="80.22,0,0" LookDirection="-80.22,0,0" UpDirection="0,0,1" Width="56"/>
</h:HelixViewport3D.Camera>
<h:SunLight />
<ModelVisual3D Content="{Binding Model3D}" />
</h:HelixViewport3D>

The ModelVisual3D content property is binded with the Model3D propery of my ViewModel.

All works fine but I would like to create the model in a function that works in background. I've tried to do this using both the BackgroundWorker class that the Task.Factory.StartNew but I've always get the message that the object is property of another thread.

One of my attempt is the following

public class MyViewModel : BaseViewModel
{
private MyData _model; // the data on which to generate my 3d model
private Model3DGroup _model3d;
private CancellationTokenSource _source;

public Model3DGroup Model3D
{
    get { return _model3d; }
    set
    {
        if (_model3d != value)
        {
            _model3d = value;
             RaisePropertyChanged(() => Model3D);
        }
    }
}

private void CreateModel3D(object dispatcherObject)
{
    Dispatcher dispatcher = (Dispatcher)dispatcherObject;

    Material nodesMaterial = MaterialHelper.CreateMaterial(Colors.Green);
    double size = Math.Max(_model.Limits.Width, _model.Limits.Height);
    double dn = size / 100;
    double db = size / 120;
    int thetaDiv = 10;

    foreach (Strauss.Node node in _model.Nodes)
    {
         MeshBuilder meshBuilder = new MeshBuilder(false, false);
         meshBuilder.AddSphere(new Point3D(node.X, node.Y, node.Z), dn, thetaDiv, thetaDiv / 2);
         MeshGeometry3D mesh = meshBuilder.ToMesh(true);
         dispatcher.Invoke((Action)(() => _model3d.Children.Add(new GeometryModel3D { Geometry = mesh, Material = nodesMaterial, BackMaterial = nodesMaterial })));
    }
}

private void ModelLoaded(object sender, EventArgs args)
{
    System.Windows.Window win = App.Current.Windows[0];
    DocManagerViewModel docManager = win.DataContext as DocManagerViewModel;
    _source = new CancellationTokenSource();
    Task task = Task.Factory.StartNew(CreateModel3D, _model3d.Dispatcher, _source.Token);
}
}

The process starts from the ModelLoaded event handler.

Can anyone please help me?
Thanks in advance.

1 -- Use Task.Factory.StartNew(). BackgroundWorker is prone to a race condition.
2 -- All WPF objects, including GeometryModel3D and MeshGeometry3D, have to be "Frozen" to be passed between threads. See "Freezable" in the MSDN documentation.

Change the code in CreateModel3D from what you have to something like:
var gm3d = new GeometryModel3D { Geometry = mesh, Material = nodesMaterial, BackMaterial = nodesMaterial };
dispatcher.Invoke((Action)(() => _model3d.Children.Add(gm3d.GetAsFrozen())));

HelixViewport3d::SphereVisual3D - How to add children via XAML (and a back end binding)?

BogusException wrote at 2014-07-18 19:15:

Experts,

I have the back end down. Right now, the XAML is the pain.

Given the following working XAML, how should I implement the backend collection of "Conns" (Connections, or Flights) in the Current Flight Demo code (which this came from)?

Below in the abbreviated XAML, this section toward the bottom is the one in question:
   <ItemsControl ItemsSource="{Binding Conns}">
        <ItemsControl.ItemsPanel>
            <ItemsPanelTemplate>
                    <Viewport3D /> <--- ??? or...?
            </ItemsPanelTemplate>
        </ItemsControl.ItemsPanel>
    </ItemsControl>
I'm 100% on the backend. I just can't figure out how to make the XAML under Helix3D ready to bind to/show the collection...

Any help at all REALLY appreciated!!!

Event that fires when the camera stops moving

Anonymous 12 years ago • 0
This discussion was imported from CodePlex

everytimer wrote at 2014-07-31 21:24:

I need to perform an operation right after the user has stopped moving the camera (everytime he does it).

I'm doing it now by subscribing to every MouseEvent that allows interaction with the camera (specifically ButtonUp). The problem is that when the user has zoomed I don't have a way to know when he has stopped zooming. Other issue of capturing mouse events is that when the camera change has been generated programatically (set some saved view, etc) and there is some animation I can't do it either.

I would like to know if there is some event that I can subscribe to know when the Camera is "done", when it has stopped moving.

If such event doesn't exist I would like to know if it is possible to create one without modifying the source code of HelixToolKit and how it could be done.

Thank you very much.

Best Car Detailing Alexandria VA – Interior & Exterior Cleaning You Can Trust

Experience Premium Car Detailing Services in Alexandria, VA

Your vehicle is one of your most valuable investments, and keeping it clean is essential for maintaining its appearance, comfort, and long-term value.

Unlike a basic car wash, professional car detailing is a comprehensive cleaning, restoration, and protection service.

Whether you drive a compact sedan, luxury vehicle, SUV, pickup truck, sports car, or commercial vehicle, professional detailing services help keep your car looking newer, cleaner, and better protected throughout the year.

What Is Professional Car Detailing?

Car detailing is a complete cleaning and maintenance process designed to restore your vehicle inside and out. Professional detailers focus on every surface, paying close attention to areas often overlooked during regular washing.

A complete detailing package may include:

  • Exterior hand washing
  • Foam pre-treatment
  • Clay bar treatment
  • Machine polishing
  • Paint protection
  • Wax application
  • Ceramic coating
  • Wheel and tire cleaning
  • Interior vacuuming

  • Engine bay detailing
  • Odor elimination

Each service is customized according to the vehicle's condition and the owner's specific needs.

Why Choose Professional Car Detailing in Alexandria VA?

Drivers in Alexandria experience changing weather, heavy traffic, road salt during winter, pollen in spring, and intense summer sunlight. These conditions can quickly affect a vehicle's appearance.

Professional detailing provides long-term protection while keeping your vehicle looking its best.

Superior Results

Professional detailers use commercial-grade tools and premium automotive products that deliver results far beyond what standard car washes can achieve.

Long-Term Protection

Protective treatments help shield your paint, wheels, upholstery, and interior materials from daily wear.

Preserve Vehicle Value

Regular detailing helps maintain your vehicle's resale value by preventing cosmetic deterioration.

Better Driving Experience

A clean vehicle creates a healthier, more comfortable environment for drivers and passengers alike.

Professional Exterior Cleaning Services

The exterior of your vehicle is constantly exposed to harsh environmental conditions.

Professional exterior detailing restores shine while protecting the paint from future damage.

Hand Washing

Unlike automated car washes that may leave scratches, professional hand washing safely removes dirt using microfiber wash mitts and pH-balanced automotive shampoo.

This gentle process helps preserve your vehicle's finish.

Foam Cannon Wash

A foam cannon applies thick foam that loosens dirt before washing begins.

Benefits include:

  • Safer washing
  • Reduced scratching
  • Better dirt removal
  • Improved paint protection

Wheel and Tire Detailing

Brake dust and road grime accumulate quickly on wheels.

Professional wheel detailing includes:

  • Wheel face cleaning
  • Tire scrubbing
  • Wheel barrel cleaning
  • Wheel well cleaning
  • Tire dressing

Clean wheels dramatically improve the overall appearance of your vehicle.

Clay Bar Treatment

Even after washing, contaminants remain attached to your paint.

Clay bar treatment safely removes:

  • Industrial fallout
  • Brake dust
  • Tree sap residue
  • Surface contaminants
  • Road pollution

The result is an incredibly smooth paint surface that is ready for polishing and protection.

Paint Polishing

Paint naturally develops imperfections over time.

Machine polishing helps remove or reduce:

  • Swirl marks
  • Fine scratches
  • Oxidation
  • Water spots
  • Paint haze

Professional polishing restores depth, clarity, and a brilliant shine.

Paint Protection

Once the paint has been cleaned and polished, protective coatings are applied.

Popular options include:

  • Premium wax
  • Synthetic paint sealants
  • Ceramic coatings

These products provide protection against:

  • UV rays
  • Rain
  • Dirt
  • Road salt
  • Bird droppings
  • Tree sap

They also make routine maintenance much easier.

Interior Cleaning You Can Trust

A spotless interior improves both comfort and hygiene.

Professional interior detailing includes cleaning every surface with products specifically designed for automotive materials.

Services typically include:

  • Complete vacuuming
  • Carpet shampooing
  • Upholstery cleaning
  • Leather conditioning
  • Dashboard cleaning
  • Door panel detailing
  • Air vent cleaning
  • Console detailing
  • Cup holder sanitation
  • Interior glass cleaning

Every corner of your cabin receives professional attention.

Carpet and Upholstery Cleaning

Carpets and cloth seats collect dirt, stains, allergens, and bacteria during everyday use.

Professional extraction cleaning removes:

  • Coffee stains
  • Food spills
  • Dirt
  • Dust
  • Mud
  • Pet hair
  • Deep-set debris

Deep cleaning restores freshness while improving the appearance of your interior.

Leather Cleaning and Conditioning

Leather requires specialized maintenance to remain soft and attractive.

Professional leather care includes:

  • Gentle cleaning
  • Dirt removal
  • Conditioning
  • Moisture restoration
  • UV protection

Routine maintenance helps prevent cracking, fading, and premature aging.

Dashboard and Interior Trim Care

Plastic, vinyl, and trim surfaces can fade or crack without proper care.

Professional detailers carefully clean and protect:

  • Dashboard
  • Door panels
  • Steering wheel
  • Center console
  • Interior trim
  • Touchscreen areas

UV protectants help maintain the appearance of these surfaces for years.

Crystal-Clear Window Cleaning

Professional glass cleaning improves both appearance and safety.

Technicians clean:

  • Windshield
  • Side windows
  • Rear glass
  • Mirrors

Streak-free glass improves visibility in all weather conditions.

Odor Removal Services

Unpleasant odors often remain even after regular cleaning.

Professional odor treatments eliminate smells caused by:

  • Smoke
  • Pets
  • Food
  • Moisture
  • Mold
  • Mildew

Steam cleaning and specialized deodorizers help restore a fresh interior environment.

Ceramic Coating Services

Ceramic coating offers one of the highest levels of paint protection available today.

Unlike wax, ceramic coating bonds directly with the paint surface.

Benefits include:

  • Long-lasting gloss
  • Hydrophobic water beading
  • UV protection
  • Easier maintenance
  • Enhanced paint durability
  • Resistance to contaminants

Vehicles protected with ceramic coating remain cleaner for longer periods.

Paint Correction

Paint correction restores the finish by removing imperfections before protective coatings are applied.

Professional polishing significantly reduces:

  • Swirl marks
  • Fine scratches
  • Oxidation
  • Water spots
  • Surface haze

This process restores a deep, mirror-like shine.

Engine Bay Cleaning

Engine bay detailing improves overall presentation while making maintenance easier.

Professional engine cleaning removes:

  • Dirt
  • Dust
  • Grease
  • Road debris

A clean engine compartment also makes it easier to inspect components during routine servicing.

  • Hybrid vehicles

Benefits of Routine Car Detailing

Regular detailing offers long-term advantages that go far beyond appearance.

Protects Your Investment

Protective treatments help preserve paint, upholstery, leather, and trim.

Increases Resale Value

A clean, professionally maintained vehicle typically attracts higher resale offers.

Enhances Comfort

A spotless interior creates a healthier and more enjoyable driving experience.

Prevents Long-Term Damage

Routine maintenance helps reduce wear caused by dirt, moisture, UV rays, and environmental contaminants.

Saves Money

Preventative care often reduces the need for expensive cosmetic repairs in the future.

Seasonal Car Detailing

Each season presents different challenges.

Spring

Remove winter road salt, pollen, and accumulated dirt while refreshing your vehicle inside and out.

Summer

Protect paint against harmful UV rays and condition leather interiors.

Fall

Clean away leaves, sap, and seasonal debris while preparing for colder weather.

Winter

Protect paint against snow, ice, moisture, and road salt with regular detailing and protective coatings.

Seasonal maintenance keeps your vehicle looking great all year long.

Eco-Friendly Detailing Practices

Many professional detailers use environmentally responsible cleaning methods.

These include:

  • Water-efficient washing systems
  • Biodegradable cleaning products
  • Eco-friendly detailing chemicals
  • Proper wastewater management

Eco-conscious detailing protects both your vehicle and the environment.

Choosing the Right Car Detailing Company

When selecting a detailing provider in Alexandria, look for:

  • Experienced technicians
  • Excellent customer reviews
  • Licensed and insured services
  • Premium detailing products
  • Transparent pricing
  • Flexible scheduling
  • Satisfaction guarantees
  • Comprehensive detailing packages

Choosing a reputable company ensures your vehicle receives the highest level of care.

How Often Should You Detail Your Vehicle?

Professional recommendations generally include:

  • Exterior detailing every four to six weeks
  • Interior detailing every two to three months
  • Complete detailing every four to six months
  • Ceramic coating maintenance according to manufacturer recommendations

Vehicles driven daily or parked outdoors may require more frequent service.

Tips to Maintain Your Vehicle Between Appointments

Professional detailing delivers long-lasting results, but regular care helps maintain your vehicle between visits.

Helpful maintenance tips include:

  • Wash your vehicle regularly.
  • Remove bird droppings immediately.
