Hi, I am studying Java3D. I am not an experienced programmer and have no real programming education but I have some knowledge of graphics. I am familiar with
POV-Ray that uses a kind of a programming language to render scenes too, in quite a similar way to Java3D, though not equal. I am really impressed by the opportunities that Java3d provides and I want to study it. But I am completely stuck in
HelloJava3D.java . Of course I read the
tutorial and actually am reading it so far. It's a good tutorial, but it doesn't explain things clearly. For example, what is
- setLayout (new BorderLayout())
What does "setLayout" means? I can't find the explanation anywhere. I sought for it in Java3D docs. I didn't find anything. I need help. Can anyone help me to understand the basics of Java3D?
