[JAVA3D] source of SPHERE class

I have two questions regarding to the construction of sphere in Sphere.java (especially to j3d team) : 1. Why are you using GeomBuffer for constructing Geometry for the shape (BODY) of sphere? Why not just an ordinary Geometry class, such as QuadArray, etc. ? If we're going to make a new shape th

Re: [JAVA3D] Text2D

Brandon, The only occasions that I have seen a white rectangle displayed for a Text2D was when I kept increasing the point size. If I set the point size very high (like 400) the text will fail to render and result in a white rectangle. I'm guessing that what your are seeing is a similar failure

Re: [JAVA3D] Calculating Normals

Matthew, You can construct two vectors (Vector3d's in java) from the 3 points (A, B, and C). The normal is simply the cross product of these (normalized) vectors. Remember that the cross product of 2 vectors is a vector that is perpendicular to both of these vectors. vector1 = new Vector3d(C
