Hi all;
I am trying to add an 'OrbitBehavior' to my scene. However, I am getting the below
error message.
I am using the 'core ViewPlatform class': My scene's centroid is at x,y,z in the
space. What I am doing is creating my viewplatform and moving it to point near to
x,y,z so that I can view the object. That means I am using the "core
javax.media.j3d.ViewPlatform class" instead of the
"com.sun.j3d.utils.universe.ViewingPlatform utility" which allows me
'OrbitBehavior'.
Is there a way adding the OrbitBehavior to my scene without using the
com.sun.j3d.utils.universe.ViewingPlatform utility but using the core
javax.media.j3d.ViewPlatform class.
If there is no way, how can I move my viewplatform to the specified point with the
specified rotation angle so that I can view my object?
Can anybody help me about this problem?
I also use Java3D 1.3 Beta.
Thanks
Murat

orbit.setSchedulingBounds(bounds);
