Hi Lucas, Thanks again for the help. I still have not been able to get the lines to render properly. Just to reiterate, the lines do not pass through the terrain. That is, they physically are defined to start and end in locations where the line will not pass through any terrain (3D elevation map). However, the lines have segments that do not render depending on the viewing angle. Do you have any other advice to figure out the issues I'm seeing? Thanks! ... View more

The lines should not be going through the elevation surface. The lines point to the sky and should not be passing through the surface. When you move the view around, the lines appear and disappear. You can see this in the picture I posted above. ... View more

Yes, I do have elevation. I need the elevation mapped. I also need lines that point to the sky that don't disappear at different viewing angle. I think it might have to do with the way things are rendered. Here is a code snippet: void addLineOfSightToMapFunc(Point myLocation, Point skyLocation,Esri::ArcGISRuntime::SceneGraphicsView* m_sceneView, QColor lineColor,mn::GraphicsOverlay* lineGraphicOverlay, MapRay *thisF ) { // create a graphics overlay for the lines lineGraphicOverlay->setRenderingMode(mn::GraphicsRenderingMode::Dynamic); lineGraphicOverlay->setSceneProperties(mn::LayerSceneProperties(mn::SurfacePlacement::Absolute)); // add the overlay to the mapview m_sceneView->graphicsOverlays()->append(lineGraphicOverlay); // create line geometry mn::PolygonBuilder polylineBuilder(m_sceneView->spatialReference()); // build the polyline polylineBuilder.addPoint(myLocation); polylineBuilder.addPoint(skyLocation); // tells renderer what type of symbol to use. mn::SimpleLineSymbol* sls = new mn::SimpleLineSymbol(mn::SimpleLineSymbolStyle::Solid, lineColor, 5, thisF); // creates graphic from the polylineBuilder mn::Graphic* lineGraphic = new mn::Graphic(polylineBuilder.toGeometry(), thisF); // set the renderer of the graphic overlay to be the line symbol lineGraphicOverlay->setRenderer(new mn::SimpleRenderer(sls, thisF)); // add the graphic to the overlay lineGraphicOverlay->graphics()->append(lineGraphic); } ...

Hi Norbert. Thanks for the info. However, I don't want my lines to be draped. I want them pointing to the sky.  ... View more

Hi Norbert, Thanks for the additional info and the response. I set the RenderingMode to Dynamic and I am having the same issues. When I set the mode to Static, the lines do not appear point to the sky, but are draped over the terrain. I have attached a picture of the rendering issue. The left picture shows that (more often than not) segments of the lines do not render (green circles added to show where lines are not being draw correctly). Could this possibly by a clipping plane issue? ... View more

Hey Lucas, do you have any updates on the rendering order problem I have been having? Have you ever encountered this before with drawing lines in a scene? ... View more

Thanks for the response. I have changed the scene properties to set in the way mentioned in that line. However, it does not fix the rendering order problem. ... View more

Thanks Lucas for the response. I will give the UniqueValueRenderer a try.  I have set the layer scene properties to absolute. I am attempting to draw the lines from a location near the surface of the terrain to a point in the sky. At no point is the line obstructed by terrain, but portions of the line render behind the terrain image and the portion that renders incorrectly changes as I change the camera angle. Here is the way in which I set the scene properties: lineGraphicOverlay->sceneProperties().setSurfacePlacement(SurfacePlacement::Absolute); ... View more

Hi Luke, Thanks for the input. I was hoping to set the background color of the scene. I don't like the appearance of the starry sky. Is there any work around for setting the scene background to a custom color? ... View more

This worked! Thank you for the help! I am so grateful.  ... View more

Hi, I tried taking the libeay32.dll and the ssleay32.dll to my C:\Qt\Qt5.7.1\5.7\msvc2015_64\bin folder and it didn't work. I looked at the kit that I am using (Desktop Qt 5.7.1 MSVC2015_64bit) is using the Compiler Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler 14.0 (amd64) . Does your setup look similar? ... View more
