You can reverse the operation of the mouse behavior classes. For
example the MouseRotate class has the constructor:
MouseRotate(int flags)
Creates a rotate behavior with flags set, where the flags are:
MouseBehavior.INVERT_INPUT Set this flag if you want to
invert
the inputs.
MouseBehavior.MANUAL_WAKEUP Set this flag if you want to
manually wakeup the behavior.
So setting the INVERT_INPUT flag makes it possible to use all of the
mouse behavior classes to provide mouse navigation. THis is discussed
in the up coming chapter, Chapter 4: Interaction, of the Java 3D API
tutorial. Chapter 4 should be available in a few days.
