[JAVA3D] Interaction between 2D and 3D APIs

[Kehagias Dionisis]

Does anyone have any idea about how an event that occures on a 2D Canvas can interact with an object in a 3D Scene Graph ? For example , when I move a point on a X-Y plane (2D Canvas) using a Mouse(Motion)Event I want a point that is rendered by Java3D as a small Sphere to be translated to the location whose X  and Y coordinates are determined by the location of the point on the 2D Canvas . I tried to create a Behavior that listens to AWTEvent but I think that it works only when an Event occurs on the 3D Canvas . The two objects - 2D Canvas and 3D Canvas reside on the same window .   Thanks !
