That would make sense - and each object could have a custom property defining it's Z location, which the parallax scrolling technique use.
I was also thinking about using like 400 cards (which would obviously be a memory hog), each card representing a single layer in a 3-D box. An object would appear on a card if it it's Z-range contains that card number. This would depend on the cards themselves being transparent (or partially transparent), allowing cards below to show through - I don't know if that is possible. I was also thinking one could assign additional custom properties to each object to define it's various 3-D characteristics, then write a rather complex interpreting algorithm that places a picture of the card into an image - with the actual look of the image based on your zoom, pan, tilt, rotate, and other factors. I understand that the math for 3-D images is a bit challenging - but boy, it would sure look cool! -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Edwin Gore Sent: Wednesday, December 22, 2004 5:34 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: 3D Rev Cards... I can think of some ways to make card objects behave in a "3-D" fashion using parallax scrolling techniques based on object number. That is, when the user scrolls the view of the card, the objects move up or down, left or right in different increments with low numbered object moving more than high numbered objects. >----- ------- Original Message ------- ----- >From: "Lynch, Jonathan" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >To: "How to use Revolution" ><[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Sent: Wed, 22 Dec 2004 15:27:56 > >Would 3D Rev Cards/stacks be possible? > >That is, all objects in 3-D, the card possessing >X,Y,Z dimensions, and >some sort of intuitive means of navigating within >the card, including >the ability to change perspective in all the ways >that a person change >the direction in which the look. > >The files would not necessarily have to be all that >much larger, >depending on the nature of the 3-D objects >involved. > >If you think about it, a stack is already a 3-D >object, if it has >multiple cards.
