babylon dashed lines in grid

[masterdon]

Can we set lines as dashed in grids lines. I am using below code:

 

var gridBox = BABYLON.MeshBuilder.CreateBox("box1", { width: objectProperties.width, height: 0.05, depth: objectProperties.height, updatable: true }, scene);

var defaultGridMaterial = new BABYLON.GridMaterial("default", scene);
defaultGridMaterial.majorUnitFrequency = 2;
defaultGridMaterial.gridRatio = 2;
gridBox.material = defaultGridMaterial;
gridBox.material.diffuseColor = new BABYLON.Color3(1, 2, 0);

Not that I can see, unless that is what the major / minor units are for.

Hi @JCPalmer

 

Thanks for quick reply. i tried setting both the properties from 0.1 to 100. But no luck.

Hi Nasimi. Thanks for the demo  

I am not aware how syntax for Fragment_Before_FragColor works. But ill look into this.

But there is lots of flickering when the above lines are viewed from longer distance.

I think it is a great idea to add it to GridMaterial

Btw GridMaterial will soon be added to core bjs (for 3.1)

I'll make sure to add support for dotted lines
