We want the user to roll an object about its center using
the mouse (no translation). There are many ways to do
this (e.g., the Java3D utility class MouseRotate encodes
one possible scheme.)
For our application certain ways of mapping mouse motion to
object orientation may be better than others. For example,
we might well be happy if users could reach only a subspace
of possible orientations. Does anyone know of a book,
article, web page, or other overview of various approaches?
Is there a summary of the research that has been done on
this problem?
Thanks,
--Randy
