Detailed Description

This helper implements grid geometry, which allows showing a grid in a scene.

For example, the following snippet would display a grid with 19 cells in both directions in a scene that has one light. Without further transformations, the grid is facing the camera by default.

View3D {
    anchors.fill: parent
    camera: camera

    PerspectiveCamera {
        id: camera
        position: Qt.vector3d(0, 0, 600)
    }

    DirectionalLight {
        position: Qt.vector3d(-500, 500, -100)
        color: Qt.rgba(0.4, 0.2, 0.6, 1.0)
        ambientColor: Qt.rgba(0.1, 0.1, 0.1, 1.0)
    }

    Model {
        scale: Qt.vector3d(100, 100, 100)
        geometry: GridGeometry {
            horizontalLines: 20
            verticalLines: 20
        }
        materials: [ DefaultMaterial { } ]
    }
}
