"aspectRatio" not supported? about x_ite HOT 4 CLOSED

It seems you have a .wrl file with some nodes and a node of type Panel, which is probably a PROTO, and this node has a field aspectRatio.

Due to the nature of the VRML encoding you use, it is not possible, nor to skip this field. This feature is first possible with X3D XML encoding. You should remove this field(s), or comment out, then your files should be possible to be loaded.

Thanks for your response. So you are saying is it not possible to just warn on unknown fields and continue the parse?
This is a snippet of the VRML:

  DEF SafeAreaFrame Switch 
   {
    choice 
    [ 
     DEF FrameGroup Group 
     {
      children 
      [ 
       DEF FP1 Panel 
       {
        source HTMLText 
        {
         body ""
         padding []
         shadow FALSE
         shadowTransparency 0
         shadowSize 8
         shadowOffset 3
         shadowColor 0 0 0
        }
        top "0"
        left "0"
        right ""
        bottom ""
        width "1"
        height "1"
        offsetLeft ""
        offsetTop ""
        aspectRatio 0
        sticky FALSE
        enabled FALSE
        backgroundTransparency 1
        backgroundColor 1 1 1
        borderSize 1
        borderRadius "0"
        borderColor 1 0 0
       }

If necessary I could preprocess the file to remove the offending line but I wasn't sure if this was something in the VRML standard that you might want to support?

On closer inspection there is a reference further up in the WRL to:
["urn:inet:parallelgraphics.com:cortona:Panel" "http://www.parallelgraphics.com/vrml/proto/Cortona/extensions.wrl#Panel"]
I can see this is failing to load as part of the parse (CORS issues) which I assume is leading to the error shown above.

Thanks for your speedy response - looks like I need to fix this elsewhere.

Think we can have it with next version, ie. unknown nodes and fields will be ignored during parse, but there will be at least a warning, that there was something unknown.
