Animating Properties to Document in 3D Scenes

Introduction

If you’re diving into the realm of 3D scene creation and animation in .NET, Aspose.3D is your go-to toolkit. In this step-by-step guide, we’ll explore the process of animating properties in 3D scenes using Aspose.3D for .NET. By the end, you’ll be equipped with the knowledge to breathe life into your 3D projects.

Prerequisites

Before we embark on this exciting journey, ensure you have the following prerequisites in place:

Aspose.3D for .NET: Make sure you have the library installed. You can download it from the Aspose.3D website .
Knowledge of C#: Familiarity with C# programming language is essential for understanding and implementing the examples.
Integrated Development Environment (IDE): Use your preferred IDE, such as Visual Studio, for coding along with the examples.
Basic 3D Scene Concepts: A grasp of basic 3D scene concepts will make your learning journey smoother.

Import Namespaces

In your C# code, ensure you import the necessary namespaces for Aspose.3D. Here’s an example:

using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Collections;
using Aspose.ThreeD;
using Aspose.ThreeD.Animation;
using Aspose.ThreeD.Entities;
using Aspose.ThreeD.Utilities;
using Aspose._3D.Examples.CSharp.Geometry_Hierarchy;

Step 1: Initialize the Scene Object

Scene scene = new Scene();

Step 2: Create Mesh Using Polygon Builder

Mesh mesh = Common.CreateMeshUsingPolygonBuilder();

Step 3: Create Cube Nodes

Node cube1 = scene.RootNode.CreateChildNode("cube1", mesh);

Step 4: Find Translation Property

Property translation = cube1.Transform.FindProperty("Translation");

Step 5: Create a Bind Point

BindPoint bindPoint = new BindPoint(scene, translation);

Step 6: Bind Animation Curve on X Component

bindPoint.BindKeyframeSequence("X", new KeyframeSequence()
{
    {0, 10.0f, Interpolation.Bezier},
    {3, 20.0f, Interpolation.Bezier},
    {5, 30.0f, Interpolation.Linear},
});

Step 7: Bind Animation Curve on Z Component

bindPoint.BindKeyframeSequence("Z", new KeyframeSequence()
{
    {0, 10.0f, Interpolation.Bezier},
    {3, -10.0f, Interpolation.Bezier},
    {5, 0.0f, Interpolation.Linear},
});

Step 8: Save 3D Scene

string output = "Your Output Directory" + "PropertyToDocument.fbx";
scene.Save(output, FileFormat.FBX7500ASCII);

Step 9: Display Success Message

Console.WriteLine("\nAnimation property added successfully to document.\nFile saved at " + output);

Conclusion

Congratulations! You’ve just mastered the art of animating properties in 3D scenes using Aspose.3D for .NET. Now, let your creativity flow as you infuse life into your 3D creations.
