Alright, a little more clarification:
- I am using two views, layered on top of each other. They both use the
same camera, but using separate view objects lets me render them
individually, which is useful for performance
- The top view has objects which are dragged in 2D. The bottom view has a
flat plane for the floor
- When the floor plane does not have pushfront or ownCanvas set to true,
it catches clicks correctly
- When the floor plane has pushfront and ownCanvas set to true, it
doesn't receive any clicks
- When the floor plane has pushfront false, but ownCanvas is true, it
misses clicks that are near an object in the view above (within the
object's bounding box, I suppose?)
- When the floor plane has pushfront true, but ownCanvas is false, it
catches clicks correctly
Having ownCanvas false, but pushfront true, or having both false was
resulting in incorrect rendering, but having them true has been causing
mouse down problems, when it used to work. I think I've found a way around
the rendering issues for now, so I may be okay without ownCanvas, but I
still thought this was worth mentioning

A couple more notes about this:
It seems that when ownCanvas is true, mouse clicks will fail ...
sometimes. Sometimes it won't receive any clicks, and you can move the
mouse slowly and it will still fail. Then if you shake the mouse a bit
more, clicking the same spot will work. The scene does not render
automatically, and does not move with the mouse, so it's the same
literal render.
One other thing that may be useful ... the Plane is contained inside an
ObjectContainer3D

Hey guys,
I think I found another regression since Away3D 3.4.
I have a simple Plane, that I'm listening to with
MouseEvent3D.MOUSE_DOWN. It worked in Away3D 3.4, but I recently
realized (since updating this project to Away3D 3.5) that the
MOUSE_DOWN event isn't firing any more. I investigated a bit, and
discovered that if the plan is set to pushfront or to ownCanvas, it
works as expected, but if both these properties are set it no longer
fires the MOUSE_DOWN event. This is disappointing, because it is only
when both of these properties are true that it appears in front of the
grid plane that is behind it.
I'll post again if I find a workaround, but until then I thought I'd
try and bring some attention to this. Maybe someone has ideas?
Thanks!
