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!

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"/>

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?

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)?

Anonymous 12 years ago • updated by 2 months ago • 1

This discussion was imported from CodePlex

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.

On-Page SEO Checklist: 10 Things Every Page Needs

2 weeks ago • 0

A well-optimized webpage helps search engines understand its content and gives visitors a better experience. On-page SEO involves improving individual elements of a page to increase its chances of ranking in search results. It also supports broader digital marketing goals, from attracting qualified visitors to improving conversions and website monetization. Whether you manage a blog, an online store, or a business website, following a consistent checklist can make optimization easier and more effective.

1. A Clear and Relevant Title Tag

The title tag tells search engines and users what a page is about. Create a unique, descriptive title that includes your primary keyword naturally. Keep it concise and make sure it accurately reflects the page content. Avoid repetitive keywords or vague titles that provide little information.

2. An Engaging Meta Description

A meta description summarizes the page and may appear as a snippet in search results. Although it is not a direct Google ranking factor, it can influence whether users choose to visit your website. Write a compelling description that explains the page's value and encourages relevant users to click.

3. A Logical Heading Structure

Use one clear H1 heading to communicate the main topic of the page, followed by H2 and H3 headings to organize supporting information. Include relevant keywords where they fit naturally, but prioritize readability. A logical heading structure makes content easier to scan and helps readers find answers quickly.

4. High-Quality, Helpful Content

Content should satisfy the search intent behind the target keyword. Provide accurate information, practical examples, and meaningful insights instead of repeating phrases to increase keyword density. Review articles regularly to correct outdated information, fill content gaps, and maintain their usefulness.

5. Natural Keyword Placement

Include your primary keyword in important locations, such as the title, main heading, introduction, and relevant subheadings when appropriate. Use related terms to add context and cover the subject comprehensively. Avoid keyword stuffing, which makes text unnatural and can harm the user experience.

6. Descriptive and Readable URLs

A clean URL helps visitors understand what a page contains before opening it. Use short, descriptive addresses that reflect the page topic. Separate words with hyphens and avoid unnecessary parameters or long strings of numbers whenever possible. Consistent URL structures also make website management easier.

7. Internal Links to Relevant Pages

Internal links connect related pages on your website and help users discover additional information. They also help search engines find and understand the relationship between different sections. Use descriptive anchor text and link only where the destination provides genuine value to the reader.

8. Optimized Images

Images can improve engagement, but large files may slow down a webpage. Compress images, choose appropriate file formats, and use descriptive file names. Add meaningful alt text to explain informative images to users who rely on assistive technology. Decorative images generally do not need descriptive alt attributes.

9. Mobile-Friendly Design and Fast Loading

Your page should work smoothly across smartphones, tablets, and desktop computers. Use a responsive layout, readable font sizes, and accessible navigation. Optimize scripts, images, and other resources to improve loading speed. Google also considers Core Web Vitals when evaluating page experience, making performance an important part of technical optimization.

10. A Useful Call to Action

A well-optimized page should help visitors understand what to do next. Depending on its purpose, you might invite readers to explore another article, subscribe to a newsletter, request a quote, or review a product. Make the next step clear without distracting users from the main content.

Final Thoughts

On-page SEO works best when every element supports a common goal: delivering relevant, accessible, and helpful content. Use this ten-point checklist when publishing new pages and reviewing existing ones. Monitor organic traffic, impressions, clicks, and engagement to identify areas for improvement. Consistent optimization helps create a stronger website that serves its audience and supports long-term growth.
