Cannot make THREE.FBXLoader locate the texture folder - directory

I have an FBX model imported in Three.js, and it has four textures. The model and the textures would all load well, provided that the textures are all in the same folder as the FBX file. I managed to transfer the FBX file to an assets folder, and the FBXLoader of the following code could easily locate it. However, upon transferring the four textures into the assets folder, I receive a 404 error. I have also already tried the THREE.LoadingManager() to no avail. Here's the code:
const loader = new THREE.FBXLoader();
loader.setResourcePath(assetPath);
loader.setPath(assetPath);
const textureLoader = new THREE.TextureLoader();
texture = textureLoader.load(assetPath);
...
loader.load('model.fbx',
...
tex => {
const material = new THREE.MeshBasicMaterial( { map:tex });
progress => ...
error => ...
}
Rest assured that I have used the most recent libraries and dependencies. I would appreciate if anyone could help me where I am doing it wrong and assist me in loading the textures from the assets folder.

Does Next.js 11.0.0 support barrel(index) files?

Barrel/index files seem to create issues when used with next.js. It doesn't seem established if it's purely a webpack issue or both webpack and next.js
According to this issue tree shaking stops working if we use barrel files. I also created a small repo where I have an issue with an index file. Not sure if it's a tree shaking issue.
Steps to reproduce the issue:
npm install
npm run dev
in browser, visit http://localhost:3000/about-pro, expect to see blank page with errors or warnings in browser's console
go to server's console(where you run npm run dev)
see an error of sort "Module not found: Can't resolve 'fs'" (1) (2) (3)
1- this comes from the await serialize in getAboutPageData file. Which itself is only called within getStaticProps
2 - googling for this issue, you'll find solutions such as modifying next.config.js file. It still doesn't work. Feel free to uncomment the next.config.js file and see for yourself
3 - to "solve" the issue, go to about-pro.tsx, in the imports, import AboutPage from its own file instead of from the barrel/index file
If I only import getAboutPageData from the barrel/index file, then it works fine. But as soon as I import e.g. AboutPage from it, it starts throwing unrelated issues.
Can I continue using barrel/index files with next.js and if yes, is there a simple and intuitive way to do that?
The issue is not in the barrel files themselves but in the library that you're using combined with barrel files.
If you take a look at the readme file https://github.com/hashicorp/next-mdx-remote#examples you can find a warning:
IMPORTANT: Be very careful about putting any mdx-remote code into a separate "utilities" file. Doing so will likely cause issues with nextjs' code splitting abilities - it must be able to cleanly determine what is used only on the server side and what should be left in the client bundle. If you put mdx-remote code into an external utilities file and something is broken, remove it and start from the simple example above before filing an issue.
So in order to make your code work you need to remove the export of getAboutPageData from your barrel file, like this:
export { default as AboutPage } from './AboutPage';
// export { default as getAboutPageData } from './getAboutPageData';
and move the code that uses the library inside the about-pro.tsx file.
import { AboutPage } from '../modules/about';
import { serialize } from 'next-mdx-remote/serialize';
const AboutPro = (props) => {
return <AboutPage {...props} />;
};
export const getStaticProps = async () => {
const serializedContent = await serialize(`# Header1`);
const data = serializedContent;
return { props: {} };
};
export default AboutPro;
I think the issue is that the modules imported in barrel files are executed both client and server side. Probably removing side effects from the barrel file could solve the issue, but I don't know enough about Next.js to be able to do it correctly.

Pre-compile QML files under Qt Quick Controls

I am importing 2 QML files that come with Qt Controls - ScrollBar.qml and Button.qml in my project. I pre-compile all .qml files that I wrote to reduce application launch time. Is there a way to pre-compile these 2 QML files that come as part of the package?
I tried to remove these files from the qml/QtQuick/Controls/ path and placed them in the same folder as my .qml files but it still failed to load. When I reference ScrollBar in my code, it always tries to load ScrollBar.qml from qml/QtQuick/Controls/ path.
Does any one know if it is possible to pre-compile these QMLs at all? If yes, has any one successfully done it?
Appreciate any help. Thank you.
I'm assuming that you're referring to the Qt Quick Compiler as pre-compiling. The simplest way would just be to build the entire Qt Quick Controls module with the Qt Quick Compiler.
If you need to have it within your project, you could try adding an import that contains the Qt Quick Controls import. QQmlEngine::addImportPath() says:
The newly added path will be first in the importPathList().
That statement seems to imply that order matters, and the code confirms it:
QStringList localImportPaths = database->importPathList(QQmlImportDatabase::Local);
// Search local import paths for a matching version
const QStringList qmlDirPaths = QQmlImports::completeQmldirPaths(uri, localImportPaths, vmaj, vmin);
for (const QString &qmldirPath : qmlDirPaths) {
QString absoluteFilePath = typeLoader.absoluteFilePath(qmldirPath);
if (!absoluteFilePath.isEmpty()) {
QString url;
const QStringRef absolutePath = absoluteFilePath.leftRef(absoluteFilePath.lastIndexOf(Slash) + 1);
if (absolutePath.at(0) == Colon)
url = QLatin1String("qrc://") + absolutePath.mid(1);
else
url = QUrl::fromLocalFile(absolutePath.toString()).toString();
QQmlImportDatabase::QmldirCache *cache = new QQmlImportDatabase::QmldirCache;
cache->versionMajor = vmaj;
cache->versionMinor = vmin;
cache->qmldirFilePath = absoluteFilePath;
cache->qmldirPathUrl = url;
cache->next = cacheHead;
database->qmldirCache.insert(uri, cache);
*outQmldirFilePath = absoluteFilePath;
*outQmldirPathUrl = url;
return true;
}
}
Your project structure might look something like this:
myproject/
qml/
main.qml
QtQuick/
Controls/
Button.qml
ScrollBar.qml
qmldir
In main.cpp you'd set the path to the qml directory (note that the path will be different depending on whether you're doing an in-source build or a shadow build of your project, so you may want to use a resource file to simplify things):
engine.addImportPath("path/to/qml");
Note that the controls import other types. For example, Button uses the Settings singleton, which comes from the QtQuick.Controls.Private import, so you'd need to copy that into the qml directory, too. Settings loads a certain style for the button (ButtonStyle), which could be any of the styles in this folder, depending on which style is in use.
In short, you need to copy all of the potential dependencies of the QML files you're using.

Install fonts on angular 2 page

I have an Angular 2 application in which i wish to use wrapbootstrap. I do however have a problem with the fonts (bootstrap, font-awesome, google) as i do not know how to implement them.
When using the css file for wrapbootstrap is says it cannot find font awesome:
"Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found) http://localhost:8000/fonts/font-awesome/fontawesome-webfont.woff2?v=4.4.0"
I cannot make sense of this as i can see the missing file(s) in resources in the chrome console on that exact address.
The font files are currently in a folder vi the following relative path from the css (application.css) file using them:
Which fits the required path in the css file:
I hope someone out there can provide some guidance as i am lost.
Thanks in advance
Solved
the problem was apparently the location of my fonts folder.
my file structure are as follows:
and i had firstly added the fonts/ relative to where the application.css file was. It had to be located in the root of my app (src)
Adding fonts installed with package manager is quite often a task. For instance, using font-awesome or any other similar library is a typical task one will need.
For this purpose, you can go through the following steps:
In tools/config/project.config.ts:
...
export class ProjectConfig extends SeedConfig {
PROJECT_TASKS_DIR = join(process.cwd(), this.TOOLS_DIR, 'tasks', 'project');
FONTS_DEST = `${this.APP_DEST}/fonts`;
FONTS_SRC = [
'node_modules/bootstrap/dist/fonts/**'
];
...
Create a file tools/tasks/project/build.fonts.ts:
import * as gulp from 'gulp';
import Config from '../../config';
export = () => {
return gulp.src(Config.FONTS_SRC)
.pipe(gulp.dest(Config.FONTS_DEST));
};
In gulpfile.ts (or in seed.tasks.json for newer versions of the Seed)
// Build dev.
gulp.task('build.dev', done =>
runSequence('clean.dev',
'tslint',
'build.assets.dev',
'build.fonts', // Added task;
'build.js.dev',
'build.index.dev',
done));
// Build prod.
gulp.task('build.prod', done =>
runSequence('clean.prod',
'tslint',
'build.assets.prod',
'build.fonts', // Added task;
'build.html_css.prod',
'build.js.prod',
'build.bundles',
'build.bundles.app',
'build.index.prod',
done));
// Build test.
gulp.task('build.test', done =>
runSequence('clean.dev',
'tslint',
'build.assets.dev',
'build.fonts', // Added task;
'build.js.test',
'build.index.dev',
done));

Load Animated gif file using QMovie in Ubuntu

I am new to Ubuntu & Qt. I need to show busy status for other long operations. So, I was just trying to use waiting animation gif files to load instead using Progress bars.
I am using Eclipse Editor for Qt project.
Trolltech/../imageformat folder contains libqgif.so and libqgif.so.debug. I have copied these files in my debug folder too.
loader.gif is added in qrc file and kept in /Resources folder
IN MainWindow class I have added label and after setupUi(this) been called I call my ShowMovie() function as below:
ShowMovie() {
QMovie *movie = NULL;
movie = new QMovie(":/Resources/loader.gif");
if(movie->isValid()) {
ui.label_3->setMovie(movie);
movie->start();
}
else
qDebug()<<"Movie is Invalid";
qDebug()<<QImageReader::supportedImageFormats ();
}
Always isValid() function returns false & I got message that Movie is Invalid.
Last qDebug() returns
("bmp", "gif", "ico", "jpeg", "jpg", "mng", "pbm", "pgm", "png", "ppm",
"svg", "svgz", "tif", "tiff", "xbm", "xpm")
i.e means gif support is available.
I have tried to call ShowMovie() function before loading Main UI and/or on button clicked. Both fails.
Provide help on what is to be corrected.
Thank you.
you don't need to copy librairies files *.so.
Try creating the movie object with the full path to loader.gif. Does it work?
Then you have not setup correctly your resource system.
Either you have a syntax mistake in the qrc file which need to be fixed or you forgot to add it as a resource in the project file (.pro) using
RESOURCES = myqresource.qrc

"Link" against a SWC in Flex

I'm trying to do a very simple app in Flash/Flex, that loads an image embedded in the swf itself and then shows it. The thing is I'm trying to do it using the command line only (mxmlc and compc) and without using #Embed, and failing miserably.
I have a very simple Main.as :
package
{
import flash.display.*;
import flash.utils.*;
public class Main extends Sprite
{
public function Main () : void
{
var pDef:Class = getDefinitionByName("icon_big.png") as Class;
var _image:BitmapData = new pDef(0, 0);
var pSprite:Sprite = new Sprite();
pSprite.graphics.beginBitmapFill(_image);
pSprite.graphics.drawRect(0, 0, _image.width, _image.height);
pSprite.graphics.endFill();
addChild(pSprite);
}
}
}
This works fine if I add icon_big.png to the Library using the Flash IDE, but I can't figure out how to do it from the command line.
I'm using compc to put the png inside a swc :
compc --include-file icon_big.png icon_big.png -output assets.swc
This generates a 17 kb assets.swf, slightly bigger than icon_big.png. Then I try to compile and link Main.as :
mxmlc -include-libraries+=assets.swc Main.as
This produces a 944 byte Main.swf, which clearly doesn't include the asset, and fails at runtime.
According to the mxmlc docs I found, -include-libraries should link with every class, including the ones not directly referenced by code (as is the case here, since I'm getting the class from code), and it unsurprisingly fails at runtime.
Note that this same code (or, more precisely, quite equivalent code) works when used within a Flash project - I'm not looking to fix the code, but how to do in the command line whatever Flash does internally.
I feel I'm just "not getting" something... any clues?
I recommend you to download the swftools from swftools.org. Once you have them, run:
swfdump -D assets.swf
Take a look in particular at the output which relates to SWF tag with value 76 (0x4C), called SYMBOLCLASS.
Here is an example of an exported class, named IntegerMemberBySlot:
[04c] 24 SYMBOLCLASS
exports 0001 as "IntegerMemberBySlot"
What symbols are you exporting from your assets.swf?
Have you tried adding the path of the assets to your source path parameter when compiling with mxmlc?
-source-path ./PATH/TO/ASSET
I think you need to embed the PNGs in a class, then compile that class into a SWC. I don't think you can put the PNGs directly into a SWC like you are trying to, but I could be wrong.
I had a similar situation (large project, resource swc with graphic assets), and no matter what I tried, I could't get Flex to include assets and classes not directly referenced from the project (I wanted to include different skins, and then instantiate the proper one at runtime, depending on the configuration).
Finally, I found a workaround by instead of static swc liking, switching over to runtime shared libraries (RSLs). Basically, flex unbundles the swc, and loads and links the included swf in runtime, before running the application itself. All of the classes and assets in the swf are loaded this way. May not be exactly what you're after, but it works for me.
