I see no option to billboard the 3D Panel widget, options are "Visible" and "Tagalong". I need to billboard the panel, is this not natively supported? If it is not, how would one go about adding that as custom JavaScript functionality?
Thanks in advance.
Hi @EJ_10785345 ,
do you mean the 3D Panel windget in 3D eyewear projects?
the 3D Panel widget property tagalong acctualy is that what have similar effect to billboard but it will move with the eyeview vector also will change the space location - you can fix it in the space alligned with the current view. Did you test e.g. on the HoloLens2 device if this effect is not that what you required ? There is also video in the Vuforia Studio Help https://support.ptc.com/help/vuforia/studio/en/#page/Studio_Help_Center%2FWidget3DPanel.html
OK if possibly you require another aligment with the device / normal to to the eyevector but e.g. rotaiton about fixed space point? That could be possible to imlemented but only with usage of javascript /not trivial and using the eyevector from the tracking event.
My apologies for not specifying, yes this is a 3D eyewear project. Thank you for your informative responses, I will investigate the links you provided.
... when possisbly required functionality like of the 2D widget is requested? No directly availible for eyewar devices- but you could achieve with some techniques as described in the post https://community.ptc.com/t5/Vuforia-Studio-and-Chalk-Tech/How-can-we-make-a-3D-Widget-on-HoloLens-visible-in-front-of-me/ta-p/658541
But this is quite complex and could be a perfromance killer when you try this to use permannently because it will try to evaluate the eyevector of the tracking event. . So possibly only temporray unitl you have the dashboard on the right location and then fixed it. But accutaly the new 3D Planel should avoid this technicue described in the post
