The program was written as a dedicated virtual lego builder. The models are scripted - plain text files - and I just thought that I can use it to display something else. The model is composed of the parts listed on the left, so each part is controled independently. That way, the orbits are totaly separated from the actual planets. So are the planets themselves. I could have written the "parts" so that the planet and her orbit makes one single module, but then I could not so easily turn off the orbits. And I really wanted to be able to turn off the orbits.
However, the model was not intended to be modified. I think I will extract from the app code a simple viewer which will not allow editing out of the context.

Frame Rates ? nice demo....one thing though...when you do a manual rotation using the Rotation X, Y, Z or the translation ....it translates the orbits but does not translates the planets or rotates the planets....hehe I'm referring to the inputs table that drops down when you click the 3rd icon next to the reload button.
