Clarification:  I can easily translate the vrp to the world coordinate origin.  I just want to rotate the viewer's coordinate system so that the axis coincides with the world coordinate system.  Does it have to do with calculating the projection, and then doing the cross product?  I am in di

I don't have a solution, but just wanted say that I'm having this same problem and haven't found a solution yet. I've attempted to change the weighting of various components with no luck. If anyone knows how to use a Canvas3D within a JSplitPane, I too would really like to know. Thanks, Mike _

Chris, Thanks for the concise summary. I'll probably put a link to this page from my site. And perhaps we can link to it from j3d.org. A couple notes: I noticed that you quoted our project (Pernica) as using overlays. That's not correct we do NOT and never intend to use overlays. More overlay
