Hi, when Pivot 1.3 was released I was curious if 3D rendering could be implemented with the help of the Java 3D API. The offscreen rendering capability of Java 3D allows to provide a lightweight component into which the rendered pixels are copied per frame (as it is done for Swing and JavaFX).
The first release (attempt) is now available at http://www.interactivemesh.org/testspace/j3dmeetspivot.html Please be aware that 3D lightweight/offscreen rendering is not as fast as 3D rendering into a heavyweight component like javax.media.j3d.Canvas3D. August Lammersdorf
