3D Visualization
Projects can have multiple different 3D visualizations in parallel, each presenting a different branch, scenario or aspect of your project.
Examples
Planet visualization:
Lake visualization:
Deep sea visualization:

Scene
A scene entity represents a specific visualization and can be viewed via the Diafunc cockpit.
It's the container entity for all entities which should be displayed or are required for the visualization.

Scene Attributes
| Attribute | Type | Example | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| size | number | 2400 | Size of cubic 3D space (scenes at Diafunc are always cubic) |
| sky | bool | true | Activates the support for sky visualization |
| terrain | bool | true | Activates the support for terrain visualization |
| waterSurface | bool | true | Activates the support for the water surface visualization |
| ambientLightColor | text | 0x202020 | Ambient light color |
| fogAboveWaterColor | text | 0xBFCEFF | Color of the fog above the water surface |
| fogAboveWaterDensity | number | 0.0006 | Density of the fog above the water surface |
| fogUnderWaterColor | text | 0x464EBD | Color of the fog under the water surface |
| fogUnderWaterDensity | number | 0.0015 | Density of the fog under the water surface |
| sunColor | text | 0xffffbb | Color of the sun |
| sunIntensity | number | 1 | Intensity of the sun |
| sunPositionX | number | -2400 | X-position of the sun |
| sunPositionY | number | 1200 | Y-position of the sun |
| sunPositionZ | number | 4800 | Z-position of the sun |
Scenes that embed 2D graphics support one additional attribute, 'canvas', which is documented on the 2D Visualization page.
Attachments
A scene displays all entities which are linked from the entity via the linkId 'attachments'.
Body
The body entity represents a visualizable physical body within 3D space.
Visualization
The visualization entity specifies the way an entity is visualized.
It must be linked from the body entity via the linkId 'visualization'.
It must be linked from the body entity via the linkId 'visualization'.
Animations
The animation entity specifies a single supported animation of a visualization.
The active animation can be configured at entities via the attribute 'animation' by mentioning either the entityId or the name of the animation entity.
