For the past two weeks I was working on the zoom issue we have with the svg model. However, I was stumped with the codes of the web interface because the condition that already exists, does not work even though the codes appear to be correct.
This is the condition:
This simple if statement is supposed to prevent the default action of scrolling when a user is interacting with the mouse wheel event.
I have tried "return false;" and I have tried putting in different conditions such as "if (somecondition)" or "if (pointerposition != viewbox)" This issue was more complicated that I initially thought as I couldn't figure out what the issue was. I will study up more and try different conditions that could detect when the pointerposition is within the viewbox.
For actual results, I was able to successfully load Jillian's tank model into the webapp. In our demo last week, I showed the thumbnail of the tank on the webapp, but failed to show the tank view. However, that is now fixed; there was a conflict within Kamil's directory (and my understanding with git and python as well). Now, hopefully in the next demo I will show that the models of the Tank will show up without flaws.
Here is the home page with the new tank model:
This is the 3D tank model and the 2D svg file :
