Draw a mesh as surfaces in 3D

Draw surfaces with rgl from any shape3d classed object. Produces a 3D surface plot from a mesh-alike object.

Arguments

x	sp, sf, raster, or any other surface model understood by anglr/silicate
...	pass material3d properties to rgl

Details

Objects that are not explicitly surfaces will be triangulated in order to produce the mesh. Whether this is a good idea or not is an open question, and some conversions will fail due to "extra" attributes like z or time stored on vertices. Polygons are only implicit surfaces but these are usually unproblematic to triangulate so this is done.

Examples

rgl::open3d()
#> wgl 
#>   4 
shade3d(volcano)

# \donttest{
## create a globe plot of land areas with elevation
rgl::open3d()
#> wgl 
#>   5 
world <- copy_down(DEL(simpleworld, max_area = 0.5), gebco * 50)
#> Warning: both proj are different longlat, no transformation done
shade3d(globe(world), specular = "black", color = "white")
rgl::spheres3d(0, 0, 0, radius = 6378000, col = "dodgerblue", alpha = 0.75)
rgl::bg3d("black")
