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!
