HowToCopyOrCreateObject was created by Milen

I'm new in 3D programming.

Now try to use GLScene. I use CT 5.70, Win 7 64 bit.

1. How can I copy 3D object? Scene editor has only delete option. In Object Inspector - I can copy, for example GLSphere1, but when I try to paste - its not copies.
2. I try to create new object in Runtime:

Procedure TForm1.FormShow(Sender: TObject);
Begin
  Sph2 := TGLSPhere.Create(GLDummyCube1.AddNewChild(TGLSphere));
  Sph2.Position.X := -0.2; Sph2.Position.Y := 0.2;
  Sph2.Slices := 64; Sph2.Stacks := 64;
  Sph2.Material.MaterialLibrary := GLMaterialLibrary1;
  Sph2.Material.LibMaterialName := 'GreyMetal';
end;

I from Scene editor have one sphere in DummyCube, but this second do not appear.

How it can be implement this (copy object in editor and create in runtime)?

Good question, I am a new CT user, and I was wondering the samething! I´m working on a college project, and we have to use 3 DummyCubes that have the same properties, and same objects into it. It would be a huge saving time the copy paste option!

Hi for all questions about GLZcene i suggest you to go and post questions at sourceforge.net/p/glscene/discussion/.

Milen Say :

1. How can I copy 3D object? Scene editor has only delete option. In Object Inspector - I can copy, for example GLSphere1, but when I try to paste - its not copies.

Right click on the object in the (iDE) Object Inspector like any other component and select Cut/Copy or paste

2. I try to create new object in Runtime:

You must set the "visible" property
