How to implement highlight effect for mesh select

[11123]

What I want

Babylon Scene use mesh outlinerender https://www.babylonjs-playground.com/#B21PEK#16

I have tried to use hightlightlayer, but even look worse. https://www.babylonjs-playground.com/#1KUJ0A#1273

We do not support this mode, for us the outline is not meant to be visible through other meshes.it would require something different to do it probably using stencil.

Here’s a way to render the outline last: https://www.babylonjs-playground.com/#B21PEK#20

I did it by creating a second sphere (a clone), with its visibility set to 0.001 to make it invisible. It’s a child of the visible sphere; and has its renderingGroupId set to 1 so that it’s drawn after the sphere and box.

IDK if there’s a more performant way to achieve this, but it seems to work well visually if you want the outline to be drawn last.

It is a good trick!!
