Hy,
I try to use sphere_sweep, but it does not work and I do not know why. I
heard of the possibilty of a sphere sweep but I do not find anything
about it in my help. So I took an example/question I found at this forum
(30.5.1998), but it does not work.
#include "colors.inc"
background { color Cyan }
camera {
location <0.1, 1, -0.3>
look_at <-0.6,0.7,0.6>
}
light_source { <2, 4, -3> color White}
sphere_sweep {
b_spline_sphere_sweep
10,
< -0.615060, 0.768933, -0.092573>, 0.01
< -0.614697, 0.769911, -0.087683>, 0.01
< -0.614641, 0.770063, -0.086920>, 0.01
< -0.614346, 0.770897, -0.082002>, 0.01

< -0.612903, 0.773932, -0.049295>, 0.01
< -0.612875, 0.773955, -0.048514>, 0.01
< -0.612801, 0.774131, -0.043586>, 0.01
< -0.612839, 0.774058, -0.038596>, 0.01
< -0.612875, 0.773669, -0.033612>, 0.01
texture {pigment {color Green}}
}
I suppose, that I still need an include-file. The text "sphere_sweep {
b_spline_sphere_sweep" keeps black in the povray-editor and the
error-message "object or directive expexted but undeclared identifier
'sphere_sweep' found instead" comes.

This feature is not part of the official version of POV-Ray and
requires one of the patched versions of the program to use it. I
am pretty sure that the SuperPatch has this included and can be
downloaded at:

Hi, Christof. I see Ken has already mentioned the Superpatch unofficial
compile for Windows, which does indeed have Jochen Lippert's sphere sweeps
patch. After you grab Superpatch you may want to take a look at Jochen's
online tutorial at:

It's also important to note that syntax highlighting will still not work
for the new keywords, even though they're supported. This may be fixable
with the next official version of POV, whenever that is, but for now we
have to put up with the new keywords staying black.

Is this because the keywords are hard coded into the editor/codemax dll's ?

Exactly. I gave Chris a patch that makes it use the keywords from tokenize.c
but it hasn't been released yet, and it has to be in an official version to
work.
