[x3d-public] Proposed Standard additions. MFStringSequencer and MFNodeSequncer

[John Carlson]

Say I want to take a [0,1] fraction key and map it to an MFString
keyValue.  How do I do that in X3D?

This might be used for alternating Text nodes, or ROUTEs (as nodes), see
below.

Also, can I take a similar key fraction and map to keyValue MFNodes?

I realize that Switch plus and ScalarInterpolator would satisfy the latter.

I’m not clear on how to do the former. This would be key to sending events
to ROUTEs, changing the from/to node names and fields.

This seems like a very powerful feature!  I just don’t know how to route
SFString events to route statements.  Is there an alternative?

Maybe I should create an Uber X3D?  Can we add DEF and name to ROUTEs, and
make them first class nodes?

I’m not sure how performant this would be, or even how implementable.

It’s probably an idea to throw in the trash!  It’s derived from trying to
reduce source code size.

Thanks!

John
