[Interest] Accessing vertex data of primitive shapes (cuboid, sphere, …)

[Federico Ferri]

I added your fix (just after the line const QByteArray &data =
buf->data();) but the problem persists (Cuboid mesh):

        return ret;

    }

    return ret;

You might want to do this:

       Qt3DRender::QGeometryRenderer *mesh = ...

       Qt3DRender::QGeometry *meshGeometry = mesh->geometry();

    for (Qt3DRender::QAttribute *attribute : meshGeometry->attributes()) {

        Qt3DRender::QBuffer *buf = attribute->buffer();

        if (buf) {

            if (buf->data().isEmpty())

                buf->setData(buf->dataGenerator()->operator()());

            buf->setSyncData(true);

            buf->setAccessType(Qt3DRender::QBuffer::AccessType::ReadWrite);

        }

    }
