Integrate three-d with egui ?

[Shrav108]

I have an app which I made in egui. I want to display a CAD File in that app. I found that that it can be done in this crate. How to integrate three-d in egui app ?

My app saves a .stl / .obj file. The crate should read the file and display on the app. How to do this ?

This could help #440

Any proper example ? I did not understand #440

tl,dr: few years ago there was an three-d example in egui, but it has been removed in this commit emilk/egui@636a39c

I think nowadays it can be ressurected easily. If you dont need to forward egui controls to three-d this should be even simplier.

Yes, I think that ☝️ example is what you want. If you end up recreating that example, please share 🙏

[Shrav108]

Sure, I will 👍

I create very draft example from my year old playground https://github.com/enomado/eframe_three_d_sample

it works, but last time I wanted to proxy egui mouse events to have camera, picking, etc. Nowadays this should be much easier.
