Correct? But WHICH plane?<br><br>Where can I find a more detailed explanation on widget interaction besides that widgets can be moved in 3D by the mouse? In "The Visualization Toolkit (3rd Edition)" they write "The initial direction of motion is used to determine which of the axes the user is moving the endpoint along". But this doesn't explain much.<br><br>Leandros<br></div></div><br>
