How do I set fxyz3d shape materials so they work?

72 views Asked by At

How do I specify a material for an fxyz3d shape? When I add to a JavaFX Group of 3D objects the fxyz3d node

    Cone cone = new Cone(coneFacets, coneRadius, coneHeight);
    cone.setMaterial(Materials.redMaterial());

it turns every shape in that group solid black, not just the cone, regardless of what any of the specified materials are. If I comment out the above two lines and the one that adds the cone to the group, all the displays of the other shapes return to their specified appearances.

I am using javafx-sdk-17.0.1, fxyz3d-0.5.4.jar, JavaSE-16, Windows 10. Is Javadoc available for fxyz3d anywhere? Or is it necessary to download source and build it locally?

The redMaterial is defined as

   final PhongMaterial material = new PhongMaterial();
   material.setDiffuseColor(Color.INDIANRED);
   material.setSpecularColor(Color.RED);

The following code will reproduce this. As is, both cone and cylinder display black. Comment out the four lines that create and add the Cone, and the cylinder will display red as specified by the material. (Don't otherwise use this as a starting-point example, as there are also issues with automatic scaling as the user adjusts the stage window size yet to be addressed.)
