Do you have these projects online that j3d.org could link to? There seems to be a slow, but steady stream of "Can Java3D be used in VR/AR apps?" questions that come through and it would nice to have a few links. As for your other problems, can't really help there. Transparency has always been an issue. Inset windows - is this just overlaid windows of information? If so, you might want to have a look at the overlay code in the j3d.org code repository to do this for you. DaveY has sent me a pile more code from Cosm where they have almost a full-on windowing system. Tres-cool. Still digesting it, but you can be assured that I'll stuff as much into the codebase as I can! (I'm trying to sync up our code with the Cosm stuff as much as possible to avoid duplication of effort). > The transparent canvas in not an issue; if you use a transparent display, > just make the background black (which makes those pixels as see-through as > possible). Ah, nice to be corrected on that. Thanks. I wasn't aware it was a property of the hardware you used. For normal applications, I'd still love to have a transparent canvas capability though.
