HLSL - Get viewport Width/Height
|
Other than manually passing them in, is it possible to get the viewport width and height within a HLSL shader? (DX10)
Something similar to Texture2D.GetDimensions(). |

Just wondering where people are getting their ebooks from(PDF). Ive found that very few sites seem to have computer programming related ebooks. Yet if you go to the publishers site they usually have an ebook section. |

SetScrollInfo calls WM_SIZE
|
Why does calling SetScrollInfo() end up issueing a WM_SIZE event?
It only seems to happen when when SIF_RANGE is used. |

Blur & Glow

You just add it with the the original rendertarget, using additive blending.
If you have photoshop to hand, it works great for testing these kind of things.

b) Use the levels too... |

Yeah, I had a look at the Cowons, but none of them meet the storage requirements.
No other suggestions?

Finding rotation angles from a normal
|
For problem one, I'd create a basis, such as
x = A4 - A1
z = A2 - A1
y = Cross( x, z )
And then problem two uses the same x,z
NewPoint = A1 + ( Scale*x + Scale*z );
Where scale is between 0 and 1. Where you then position the basi... |

Ray/triangle test. Has this already been done?

Yes, that's a standard method for testing for intersection between a ray and a triangle or other convex polygon. (It's not the only method, nor is it always the best choice, but it is standard.)
ah, ok. I did have a quick search and... |
