Hi Peter, take a look to the API Specs, C 11.2 ff. You have to put the transform3d created by lookAt() into your view object. Use setVpcTo Ec() of View. This is because the eye position is not the same as the position of your viewpoint. Gernot [EMAIL PROTECTED] =

Jimmy, A simpler (cleaner) way that might work for you is to derive a class from Alpha. Override the value() method and watch for the values that your Alpha is returning. The time/value will tell you when a cycle of the Interpolator is complete, then it is time to activate your "end of animation"
