Back to Week 4

Objective: TBA

Tino: Creating items using scene graph nodes

Beginner

• What is a scene graph?
• Why the object tree and scene tree have been separated in QML?*

Intermediate

• What are scene graph nodes?
• When the node is rendered and how?
• How to define the geometry of the node?
• What is the material and how to define it?
• How to add textures?

Tino: This goes quickly to complicated 2D/3D graphics pipeline programming. Let's use just 2D geometry as in SDK examples and either flat colour or colour material. Let's NOT introduce any shaders related to the material except perhaps mention them.
