Qt 3D
Qt 3D provides functionality for near-realtime simulation systems with support for 2D and 3D rendering in both Qt C++ and Qt Quick applications.
The functionality in Qt 3D is divided into the following C++ modules:
Qt 3D module contains functionality to support near-realtime simulation systems | |
Qt 3D Extras modules provides a set of prebuilt elements to help you get started with Qt 3D | |
Qt 3D Input module provides classes for handling user input in applications using Qt3D | |
Qt 3D Logic module enables synchronizing frames with the Qt 3D backend | |
Qt 3D Render module contains functionality to support 2D and 3D rendering using Qt 3D |
For Qt Quick applications, Qt 3D provides the following QML modules:
Provides core Qt 3D QML types | |
Provides Qt 3D QML types for the extras module | |
Provides QML types for Qt 3D user input | |
Provides QML types to synchronize frames with the 3D backend | |
Provides Qt 3D QML types for rendering |
Getting Started
For a C++ application that performs 2D or 3D rendering, collision detection, and also handle user input, add the following line to its qmake .pro file:
QT += 3dcore 3drender 3dinput 3dlogic 3dextras
To include the definitions of the modules' classes, use the following directives:
#include <Qt3DCore> #include <Qt3DRender> #include <Qt3DInput> #include <Qt3DLogic> #include <Qt3DExtras>
A Qt Quick application requires also additional dependencies:
QT += 3dcore 3drenderer 3dinput qml quick 3dquick
Overview
The high level design and motivation for Qt 3D is described in the Qt 3D Overview. The Qt 3D Render aspect offers support for data-driven configuration as described in Qt 3D Render Framegraph.
