## Demo of the 3d Viewer

> This page is intended to do a first step with JavaView and, mainly, test your Java environment. Before JavaView is able to run, a small compressed library of about 250kb is automatically downloaded. Rotate geometry by moving mouse inside viewer window and drag while left mouse button pressed.

> The sample model is a torus colored by its discrete Gauss curvature. Additionally, vertex normals shown and some vertices are marked. Use the material panel to switch display of certain features. Use the menu Method -> Mark -> Remove Marked Vertices to delete the rectangles adjacent to the marked vertices.

> Press right mouse button to select major interaction mode from popup menu, or use keyboard keys to temporarily switch between different modes (just keep a button pressed to switch mode temporarily). Some essential modes are:

> o | Rotate surface (this Orbit mode is the default mode)
> s | Scale surface, drag in vertical direction
> t | Translate surface in viewing plane
> r | Reset camera and display, object returns to default position
> F1 or Ctrl-s or Right-Mouse | Show control window
> Help | With all keyboard shortcuts, and help on problems.

> To modify appearance of the geometry press F1 or Ctrl-s to open the control panel and select the material panel (if not visible) via menu Inspector - Object - Material. Be sure that the mouse focus is inside the viewer otherwise, e.g., the window manager might react. To hide the control panel press F2.
