FAQ
From Aristoteles
[edit]
- The aristoteles viewer starts but there is no visible 3d scene after loading, what is wrong?
- By default java3d is using OpenGL to access your graphic card. This is not supported by all systems! If you use a windows system it is possible to force java3d to use DirectX instead of OpenGL.
- How to switch to DirectX...
[edit]
- Is MacOS supported?
- Since Java supports MacOS, Aristoteles is likely to run under MacOS but that hasn't been tested yet!
[edit]
- Can I open 3d shape files with this viewer?
- Not yet! This feature will be provided in the future, but now it isn't even available as alpha release ...
[edit]
- Which license is used?
- This project is provided as open source under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GNU-GPL).
[edit]
- Can I open and visualize only CityGML files with this viewer?
- No, you are able to open and visualize all 3d data files conforming the GML 3.x standard.
