Hello,

I’d like to use KFbxDisplayLayer class to create multiple layers, but I have no idea how to create it. The constructor is protected and KFbxSdkManager and KFbxScene don’t have any methods to create it. Did I miss something? Some short code sample would be very helpful. :-)

Thank you.
Regards,

Tomas Rejhons.

To create a object of KFbxDisplayLayer, call KFbxDisplayLayer::Create(...). It’s defined through some macros… It’s the conventional way to create objects in FBX SDK. You’ll see many KFbxBlaBla::Create(...) in the samples of FBX SDK.
The display layer concept is as the same as layers in 3ds max. Here’s some explanation in 3dsmax help:

Hi Tomas,

I am not sure what you want to do. If you want to layer textures, maybe KFbxLayeredTexture is the class you are looking for?

Hi Viviane,

I know how to layer textures, but I want to create display layers for usage in 3DS Max layer system. I think Liang’s reply solves my problem.

Tomas Rejhons.
