most likely this is due to the back clipping plane distance...you'll have
to reset your views backclip distance:
     view.setBackClipDistance( 300.0 );

You can also set your front clip distance to bring it close so when you zoom
in you can zoom closer
     view.setFrontClipDistance( 0.1 );

Note: the ratio of the back clip to front clip distances should be about
3000
...I can't remember the reason but this is a recommendation. In reality I
was able to make these distances bigger so you can try it yourself.

Subject: [JAVA3D] disappearing


Hello all,

I've created a scenegraph subject to mouse zooming behaviors but when I
zoom out to a certain point the portion of the scene at the far back just
disappears, like it is disappearing behind a black curtain.  The same
thing happens if I start with the viewing platform too far away from the
origin, i.e. at a certain distance the scene just disappears.

Any suggestions?  Thanks in advance.
