a3d_pdfwidget_carousel (HOOPS Publish Advanced) Module to access and define View Carousel widget
This module describes the functions and structures that allow you to define a View Carousel. A View Carousel is a high level widget to display a set of 3D views. The view list is displayed on a set of buttons, each button icon shows the poster related to the view, and the icon has the view name as label. The user can scroll the buttons set with previous and next buttons.

The PDF document must contain the buttons for the views and the buttons to go to the next and the previous view.
HOOPS Publish uses the graphics driver of the user’s PC. By default, HOOPS Publish attempts to select the graphics driver in this order: DX11->DX9->OpenGL2->OpenGL. To override the default driver selection, set the A3DPOSTERDRV environment variable to one of the following values: DX11, DX9, OGL2, OGL1
If not NULL, ppImages must contain the images that will be used for the views. In that case, the size of the array should be the same as the size of ppViews parameter.
