Unable to "hit" an object using pickResult in a loaded scene

[3556]

I am loading a scene where I'm trying to click on an object using pickResult.pickedMesh. I however get "null" when I check it on console.log. i.e. it is not hitting anything in the scene. 

Here is the code snippet. Have attached the index.html file as well. I was unable to upload the complete project to the playground, as I'm not sure how to upload the .babylon scene file and the .jpg files.

     //When pointer down event is raised

            newScene.onPointerDown = function (evt, pickResult) 
            {
                  // Check if pickResult(); did hit anything by printing it on console.log
                 console.log(pickResult.pickedMesh) 

                 // print the info of the clicked object

                 if (pickResult.hit) {console.log(pickResult.pickedMesh)}
            };

Would appreciate if anyone could help out on what could be possible wrong? Thanks.

make sure:

mesh.isPickable = true;

I'm still new to BJS  -  if you could you possibly refer to an example/demo of mesh.isPickable = true;  it would be helpful.

Thanks. That seems to be a member of a mesh?

I am however loading a complete scene via BABYLON.SceneLoader.Load(" ", "Retail.babylon", engine, function (newScene).  Do I have to loop through all the meshes in the scene and set each of them to isPickable = true; ?

If they are set to false and you want to be able to pick them, yes.

I had taken the scene from the babylon.js samples, so am not sure if the meshes in it are set to false (or true). I loaded the scene in the BJS editor and sandbox, but couldn't see that info in there. Any idea how that info can be viewed/edited?

Unable to find that setting in the editor. I think it probably has to do with the manifest file configuration? Trying to again browse the docs & posts on here for a resolution.

Was able to resolve this using BABYLON.SceneLoader.ImportMesh and then setting individual meshes to isPickable

Thanks for all your help.

 

		// Import the scene as individual meshes
		BABYLON.SceneLoader.ImportMesh("", "./", "Retail.babylon", scene, function (newMeshes)
		{		
		  // set isPickable to true, so that mouse clicks can hit objects
		  for (var i = 0; i < newMeshes.length; i++) {newMeshes[i].isPickable = true;}
		}
		)		

		//When pointer down event is raised
		scene.onPointerDown = function (evt, pickResult) 
		{
                  // print the info of the clicked object 
                  if (pickResult.hit){console.log(pickResult.pickedMesh.name)} 
		}
