    I am using Qt 6.7.0.

    I want to get the coordinates of the four corners of a QPlaneMesh, but QPlaneMesh::geometry() is NULL.

    #include <QGuiApplication>
    
    #include <Qt3DInput/QInputAspect>
    
    #include <Qt3DRender>
    #include <Qt3DExtras>
    #include <Qt3DCore>
    
    Qt3DCore::QEntity* createScene()
    {
        // Root entity
        Qt3DCore::QEntity* rootEntity = new Qt3DCore::QEntity;
    
        // Material
        auto material = new Qt3DExtras::QPhongMaterial(rootEntity);
    
        // Plane
        auto planeEntity = new Qt3DCore::QEntity(rootEntity);
        auto planeMesh = new Qt3DExtras::QPlaneMesh;
        planeMesh->setWidth(5);
        planeMesh->setHeight(5);
    
        auto planeTransform = new Qt3DCore::QTransform;
        planeTransform->setRotation(QQuaternion::fromAxisAndAngle(QVector3D(1, 0, 0), 45.0f));
    
        planeEntity->addComponent(planeMesh);
        planeEntity->addComponent(planeTransform);
        planeEntity->addComponent(material);
    
        auto geometry = planeMesh->geometry(); // null
        for (auto attribute : geometry->attributes())
        {
            // ...
        }
    
        return rootEntity;
    }
    
    int main(int argc, char* argv[])
    {
        QGuiApplication app(argc, argv);
        Qt3DExtras::Qt3DWindow view;
    
        Qt3DCore::QEntity* scene = createScene();
    
        // Camera
        Qt3DRender::QCamera* camera = view.camera();
        camera->lens()->setPerspectiveProjection(45.0f, 16.0f / 9.0f, 0.1f, 1000.0f);
        camera->setPosition(QVector3D(0, 0, 40.0f));
        camera->setViewCenter(QVector3D(0, 0, 0));
    
        // For camera controls
        Qt3DExtras::QOrbitCameraController* camController = new Qt3DExtras::QOrbitCameraController(scene);
        camController->setLinearSpeed(50.0f);
        camController->setLookSpeed(180.0f);
        camController->setCamera(camera);
    
        view.setRootEntity(scene);
        view.show();
    
        return app.exec();
    }
    

    I used the code on the following page as a reference, but does it not work with the current version? Or is there some additional processing that needs to be added?

      It was possible to obtain it via the QGeometryView class like planeMesh->view()->geometry().
