I will be treating the different canvas completely independent. They can represent different views or not. Even for the 3D scenario, I just want to select few points in canvas1 and in the other canvas, calibrate the views (find the transformation), and get the x,y,z coordinates of other points. In fact, most of the time I will be doing only 2D calculations in different views where the 3D coordinates are not even needed. So, if you could demonstrate how to make a FC2 app with one guimode and more than one canvas, this would be great.
Thanks for the help, the corrections you gave worked fine. Marcos
