TubeVisual over TubeVisual

Hello,
Also I am not able to bind the Path of the TubeVisual3D.
I want to create a TubeVisual3D on a TubeVisual3D - inner tube & outer tube. I want the inner tube to be on the Outer tube -so inner tube can be visible over outer. My code is :-
<HelixToolkit:TubeVisual3D Path="-12 7 -1.45 -2 0.5 0 -8 -55 0.45" x:Name="myTube" Diameter="5" Fill="Gray" IsPathClosed="False"
/>
<HelixToolkit:TubeVisual3D Path="-10 5 -0.45 2 0.5 0 -8 -55 0.45" x:Name="myInnerTube" Diameter="2" Fill="White"
/>
But with this, myInnerTube (the inner tube) is seen behind the outer. How do I make it see the myInnerTube on the outer tube ?? What should I add in that tube control ?
Also I am not able to bind the Path of the TubeVisual3D.
<HelixToolkit:TubeVisual3D x:Name="tube1" Path="{Binding TubePipe}" Diameter="1.5" IsPathClosed="False"
Fill="#FFD61D1D"/>
// Code Behind
public WellBoreWindow()
{
InitializeComponent();
//Pipe = CreatePath();
TubePipe = CreateTubeVisual();
DataContext = this;
}
private IList<Point3D> CreateTubeVisual()
{
// -9 0 -0.45 -8 0.1 0 -9 0 0.45
List<Point3D> pts = new List<Point3D>();
pts.Add(new Point3D(-12, 0, 0.45));
pts.Add(new Point3D(-11, 0.1, 0));
pts.Add(new Point3D(-12, 0, 0.45));
return pts.ToList();
}
public IList<Point3D> TubePipe { get; set; }
It doesn't show naything, why so ??objo wrote at 2014-01-25 22:36:
1) Sharp corners on the tube and extruded visuals are not supported.
I think this needs an approach similar to GLE - http://linas.org/gle/

2) Note that the
Path
dependency property is of type Point3DCollection
. It seems like the
Point3DCollectionConverter
converter only supports strings, not
IList<Point3D>
. You can work around by changing to TubePipe = new Point3DCollection(CreateTubeVisual());
You also need to change the points in your example (same reason as for #1) to see anything: pts.Add(new Point3D(-12, 0, 0.45));
pts.Add(new Point3D(-11, 0.1, 0));
pts.Add(new Point3D(-10, 0, 0.45));

Thanks objo,
My binding issue got resolved.
I need to draw a tube, an inner tube in it (through which chemical/liquid passes). So got to show chemical, arrow also on it. Which control to use to achieve the goal....
I didn't get how GLE can help me with this...
Thanks

Sorry, I don't understand what you try to model here. Can you draw a figure or model it in some other program?
GLE is a tubing and extrusion library for OpenGL, written in C. This library does proper joins - see http://linas.org/gle/join.html
I am not aware of anything similar in C#.
We can add it as a new feature in the issue list, but I think it is a rather big task to implement this.
