Re: [away3d] Away3DLite : Adding an scene object to a container without losing scene position (Global 3D to Local 3D)

[John Brookes]

Only just starting out with away3d&lite so may be way of the mark :/

something like

reparent(sphereA, container2);

private function reparent(ob:Mesh, newParent:Mesh):void
{
    var newParentMatrixCopy:Matrix3D  = newParent.sceneMatrix3D.clone();
    newParentMatrixCopy.invert();

    var obMatrixWorld:Matrix3D = ob.sceneMatrix3D.clone();
    newParentMatrixCopy.prepend(obMatrixWorld);

    ob.transform.matrix3D = newParentMatrixCopy;

    ob.parent.removeChild(ob);
    newParent.addChild(ob);
}
